Jamie Vardy Set to Bid Farewell to Leicester City After 13 Memorable Years
Jamie Vardy, one of the most iconic players in Leicester City’s history, has officially announced that he will be leaving the club at the end of the current season. This news marks the end of an incredible chapter, as Vardy closes the book on a 13-year spell that transformed both his career and the club's legacy.
Since joining the Foxes in 2012 from non-league side Fleetwood Town, Vardy’s journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. He played a central role in one of the greatest football stories ever told — helping Leicester lift the Premier League trophy in the 2015-16 season. His performances that year earned him the Premier League Player of the Year award and international recognition.
The 38-year-old striker has scored 181 goals in more than 400 appearances for Leicester City, making him one of the club’s all-time top scorers. Apart from the historic Premier League win, Vardy also helped Leicester secure the FA Cup and Championship titles during his time at the club.
In the 2019-20 season, he once again showed his class by winning the Premier League Golden Boot, finishing as the league’s top scorer at age 33 — proving that age is just a number when it comes to natural talent and hard work.
Vardy’s departure will be an emotional moment for fans, players, and staff alike. His story has inspired millions — from working part-time jobs in non-league football to becoming a Premier League champion and club legend.
As the current season nears its end, Leicester supporters will be preparing for a heartfelt goodbye to a player who gave them unforgettable memories and helped redefine what’s possible in modern football.
