At 38, Vardy recently departed Leicester City following their relegation from the Premier League. Despite his age, he managed to score 8 league goals in the 2024–25 season, leading the team’s scoring charts.
Leeds United, newly promoted to the Premier League, are reportedly interested in bolstering their attacking options. However, former Leeds manager Simon Grayson expressed skepticism about Vardy’s suitability, citing his age and substantial wage demands. Grayson noted that Vardy appeared to be “struggling a bit” in recent performances and suggested that his high salary might not align with Leeds’ financial strategy.
While Vardy’s experience and goal-scoring record are undeniable, concerns about his fitness and adaptability to Leeds’ playing style persist. As the club evaluates its options, the decision to pursue Vardy will hinge on balancing his potential contributions against the team’s long-term objectives and financial considerations.
