Leicester City have announced that captain Jamie Vardy will leave at the end of the season after 13 years at the club.
Leicester’s immediate return to the Championship was sealed on Sunday with a 1-0 defeat by Liverpool which led to Vardy labelling their season a “total embarrassment”.
Vardy has made 496 appearances for Leicester since joining the club from Fleetwood Town in 2012 and played a huge role in Leicester’s fairytale Premier League title in 2016 where he broke Ruud van Nistelrooy’s record by scoring in 11 consecutive matches.
He scored 18 goals as Leicester won the Championship last season, but this term he has managed just seven in the league.
