JAMIE VARDY SENDS STRONG 3-WORD MESSAGE TO Marti Cifuentes AHEAD OF SENSATIONAL RETURN TO THE KING-POWER STADIUM

 

Former Leicester City and England striker Jamie Vardy has embarked on a new chapter, signing a one-year deal with Italian Serie A newcomers Cremonese on a free transfer.

The 38-year-old, whose contract with Leicester expired in June, could extend his stay for another year if Cremonese avoid relegation. The move marks a thrilling twist for the veteran forward, who leaves behind a storied legacy at Leicester.

Vardy, a Leicester icon since joining in 2012, is celebrated for his pivotal role in the club’s miraculous 2015-16 Premier League title triumph.

Scoring 200 goals in 500 appearances, he cemented his status as one of Leicester’s greatest-ever players. His accolades include the 2021 FA Cup and seven goals in 26 England caps. Known for his relentless work rate and clinical finishing, Vardy’s move to Serie A promises to bring his trademark grit to Italian football.

Cremonese, fresh off promotion, have started their Serie A campaign strongly, securing victories against Sassuolo and AC Milan. Vardy’s experience could prove invaluable as they aim to establish themselves in the top flight.

He could make his debut on September 15 against Hellas Verona, potentially setting the stage for an emotional return to Leicester’s King Power Stadium later this season.

The move has sparked excitement among Cremonese fans, eager to see Vardy’s tenacity in Serie A. For the striker, it’s a chance to prove he can still compete at the highest level.

As Vardy swaps the East Midlands for Lombardy, his journey from non-league to Premier League glory and now to Italy remains one of football’s most inspiring tales. All eyes will be on how the veteran adapts to this new challenge.
