Unexpected landing spot for Vardy

According to SunSport, after officially leaving Leicester City at the end of this season, Vardy could be preparing for a surprising new chapter in his career in La Liga, a tournament dominated by giants such as Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Carlos Corberan, Valencia's head coach and former West Brom tactician, is said to be keen on signing Vardy on a free transfer. With Valencia struggling financially, Corberan sees Vardy as a "bargain" deal, bringing both experience and attacking strength to his signature counter-attacking style.

Vardy leaves Leicester after many years of association.

Despite turning 38, Vardy has still shown formidable form, scoring 10 goals in the 2024/25 season, including 9 in the Premier League. He just had an emotional farewell to the "Foxes", scoring his 200th goal in his 500th appearance, exactly 13 years since he joined the "Foxes" from Fleetwood Town for just £1 million.

While Vardy has expressed his desire to continue playing in the Premier League, he is open to lifestyle options, including offers from MLS (USA) and Saudi Arabia. However, Valencia, a destination in Spain with its high level of competition and technical style of play, would be a fascinating final challenge before he considers hanging up his boots.

Corberan has revived Valencia this season. When he took over late last year, Valencia were bottom of La Liga with just 12 points. But since the 7-1 defeat to Barcelona on January 26, he has led the club on an impressive 14-game run of eight wins, five draws and just one defeat to Atletico Madrid.

If Valencia win against Real Betis in the upcoming match, they can completely finish the season in 10th place, something that not many "Bats" fans dared to think of a few months ago.

The arrival of Jamie Vardy has not only brought technical strength to Valencia’s attack but also a huge boost to morale and media. In a period of transition, the Eastern Spanish team hopes that the Premier League icon will be the perfect piece to close out a resurgent season and open up a promising future.
