DONE DEAL: Jamie Vardy has officially joined Rangers FC, marking a significant move for the 38-year-old striker after a legendary 13-year spell at Leicester City. T

The transfer, finalized today, sees Vardy bring his wealth of experience and goal-scoring prowess to the Scottish Premiership.

Vardy’s journey from non-league football to Premier League champion is one of football’s most inspiring tales. Signed by Leicester in 2012 for £1 million from Fleetwood Town, he went on to score 198 goals in 496 appearances, playing a pivotal role in Leicester’s historic 2015–16 Premier League title win. His accolades include the Premier League Golden Boot in the 2019–20 season and multiple Player of the Month awards.

Rangers have long admired Vardy, with former manager Ally McCoist revealing past attempts to sign him during his Fleetwood days. Now, over a decade later, the club has secured the services of the prolific forward.

Vardy expressed his enthusiasm about the move, stating, “Joining Rangers is an exciting new chapter in my career. I’m eager to contribute to the team’s success and experience the passionate atmosphere at Ibrox.”

Rangers fans can look forward to Vardy’s debut in the upcoming season, hoping his experience and tenacity will bolster their attacking options.
