The reason for Jamie Vardy to end his time with Leicester was a decision made of a desire to continue his career elsewhere. To be part of a third promotion push back to Premier League at the age of 38 was not something that triggered him or the club.
We believe the higher hierarchy would have gone another mile to try to give JV9 a new contract, but his desire to try something new never made this an alternative.
Recent calls are talking up the Hollywood act and movie star concept at Wrexham. However, Jamie Vardy and his family are far from movie stars. As a family, they are very low key. They are far from what the media likes to bring up as an image.
Jamie Vardy will do what he can to avoid playing in a league featuring games vs. Leicester. He could continue playing for more years, not set a stop next season as long as he enjoy his football. Cristiano Ronaldo, Pepe, Alessandro Costacurta, Paulo Maldini and Teddy Sheringham are five other special players. They all continued to play all into their fourties.
🚨 Jamie Vardy has no plans to retire. ❌🏴
Despite being 38 years old, he believes he can still play in the Premier League. 👀

Jamie Vardy will not consider a move to Wrexham that would not suit The Dragons or JV9. Wrexham have a double life. The owners and their media approach are just part of the commercial side. The work done with the team is focused on the footballing side. It is very much a sporting project built on gradual progress to reach the ultimate goal.
The structure at Racecourse Ground will not stretch the salary budget to heights that will see this project being slammed due to PSR og FFP challenges. Their manager Phil Parkinson is a man that has a grounding and experience far from an Hollywood act. The club will build a very strong unit. They will avoid bringing in players who prevent them from building good relations. This will also avoid major gaps in payment between certain players at the club.
Leicester have a lot to learn from Wrexham. They are loyal to a plan. They will move forward with a sustainable and effective idea on how to reach their goal. This will be done without setting everything on fire to enrich desperate managers. Those managers often fail at getting a good player mix. A balanced picture requires good investments, academy development, and keeping solid, capable players. Looking at the progress plan at Wrexham does not involve a player like JV9. His age and wage demands will not align with what is going on at Racecourse Ground at the moment.
Jamie Vardy is eager to continue to play at the highest level. His goal is to finish his career going for more goals in Premier League action. Wolves and Leeds are two clubs mentioned as potential new destinations. Both clubs could fit the picture. They can offer JV9 a plan. This plan ensures he is very much involved in the week to week action in the Premier League.
There are suitors for Jamie Vardy abroad. However, a move to either MLS or Saudi will possibly not be what the family man is looking for. Evil talk suggests he needs to bring in a large paycheck over the next three or four years. This is to satisfy certain demands. If he signs for a club like Wolves or Leeds, we hopefully will see what Jamie Vardy is looking for. He aims to continue scoring goals in Premier League action.
