Until an official announcement is made, the question of where Leicester City legend Jamie Vardy will play next continues to intrigue fans.
Although it’s a bittersweet moment, many supporters acknowledge that it’s likely time for the long-serving Foxes striker to part ways with the club. While he may not be the top choice for clubs seeking major upgrades, Vardy could still find a suitable destination at 38 years old.
The primary factor driving his departure seems to be his desire to continue competing in the Premier League. With Leicester already confirmed for relegation, remaining in the top flight is no longer an option if he stays at King Power Stadium.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have emerged as a possible suitor, according to Football Insider’s Pete O’Rourke. Wolves are reportedly including Vardy in their summer transfer plans, enticed by the opportunity to sign the Premier League veteran on a free transfer.
The move could make sense for Wolves, especially with Matheus Cunha expected to join Manchester United soon. As they prepare for another season in the Premier League under Vítor Pereira, Vardy’s experience and goal-scoring ability could help fill the void left by Cunha—if not in a like-for-like role, then at least in terms of attacking contribution.
For Leicester fans, this potential move underscores the magnitude of the club’s disappointing season. Few players spend their entire professional careers with one team, and it’s likely that Vardy would have stayed if not for the club’s relegation.
Vardy’s past antics during heated clashes with Wolves—such as mocking celebrations—may have sparked tension with their fans. However, such moments are often born from passion and intensity. Supporters tend to move on quickly if a player shows commitment and delivers on the pitch. Should Vardy join Wolves and score key goals, any past grievances are likely to fade into the background, even if not entirely forgotten.
