Jamie Vardy, Leicester City’s “greatest-ever player” will say goodbye to the club this summer.
This is coming after it was confirmed that Leicester City will be relegated to the English second tier, Championship, at the end of the season.
Following a lone goal loss to toppers, Liverpool, in the Premier League match on Sunday 20 April, 2025 at King Power Stadium, the Foxes move to the Championship was confirmed – Trent Alexander-Arnold netted the only goal for Arne Slot’s Reds in the 76th minute.
According to lcfc.com:
We can confirm legendary striker Jamie Vardy will leave Leicester City this summer after 13 seasons that have seen him become our greatest-ever player.
Jamie, 38, joined us for £1M from Fleetwood Town in 2012 and has gone on to become a Premier League, FA Cup, Community Shield and double Championship winner during a golden era for our Club.
There is no other player more synonymous with the incredible successes achieved in that time and, with nearly 500 appearances and almost 200 goals to his name, Vardy’s achievements on Filbert Way are unrivalled throughout our 141-year history.
The Englishman’s final game at King Power Stadium will be on Sunday 18 May against Ipswich Town, where he will bid farewell to the supporters.
