Does Vardy stay for another season?

[Htfox59]

Does varus stay for just one more season in the championship. Here is our 20 goal man if he does.

[Buzzell]

Yes.

[Brainy]

I hope he gets those 20 goals off the bench then. If now isn't the time to be blooding a new striker as our main man (hopefully Nacho or even Daka if need be) then I don't know when will be. 

[Bozman]

If we want a chance of getting straight back up  then yes for sure...

[Mark_w]

His wages would presumably be a big problem. I really don’t want us to be using him as more than an impact sub/occasional starter anyway. Build a young team of players that would be playing for us in the Prem if we get there. He’s an absolute legend, but we’ve got to let go and stop having him eat into the game time of players who could be good for us longer term.

[FoxesWalk]

America surely makes quite a lot of sense for him? 
 

Id love him to stay but it doesn’t make much sense and he’d need to take a huge pay cut 

[baldeagle]

Does what he wants mate 

[Jamie Vard-on]

I think he’ll stay. Probably renegotiate his wages, something like 30% cut, then if we get promoted, he gets that 30% back as a ‘bonus’ - and a new deal.

 

Can’t see many clubs offering a player pushing 40 £150k a week.

 

Vardy staying is also good for morale. Makes our Championship status seem temporary, and less like a sinking ship. Kinda like how Izzet stayed in 2002.

 

If he stays, he’s ensuring club legend status, if not already.

[Mickyblueeyes]

He either retires or stays. I don’t see him leaving. 
 

I also think one other “big” player stays. We have so many who are meant to leave, we’ll get to a stage where one has to stay because we don’t get the offer we want and have sold enough to dig our heels in. You then build around that player and Vardy. 

[Fox1970]

I have a hunch he'll retire

[Clever Fox]

We love him to bits, But it is time for him to go with our love and blessing. He's been a terrific servant.

 

Even with a 50% salary reduction he'd still on something like 75k. a week. We can't be paying anyone 75k a week to sit in the Stand.

 

Time to pick up a big signing on Fee with a season or two in America. to replenish his Bank Balance.

What? When we owe him about 6m quid? 

 

There's not a chance on earth he retires x

[themightyfin]

Why on earth would he retire and throw his wages away?

I hope he does. I don’t like to see top players drop down the divisions and struggle even more. He scored 3 goals last season . We can’t pay someone 140k a week to repeat that in the championship.

well if billy sharp at 36 could still score 14 i’m pretty sure vardy could still hit 20 in this league. 

 

Im fully of the opinion that it’s entire up to him 

[filbertway]

Of course he does. The only club he will get away with robbing money from for a 3rd year on the trot

 

I wish we knew how to part ways at the right time

He’s on £145,000 a week.

 

So, approx £600k a month (£7.2 million a year).

 

So yeah, he ain’t retiring.

[iancognito]

Just like Evans and one or two others, it will depend on who comes in. So many managers think he's still prime 2016 Vardy and if whoever gets the job tells him he's still the man, he'll take the cut and stay.

 

Fact is there are very few top flight clubs that need his  services. Brentford to cover Toney? Brighton to cover Europe? Even if the promoted ones take a gamble they might struggle to give him the wages he wants anyway.

 

Only way he retires is if America is suddenly appealing. If he isn't going to be playing here and there's no other offers, he might just decide to call it a career but I think he'd want one last hurrah.

Not a chance 😂

[Foxxed]

He deserves more. But...

 

The only other strikers we'll have are Daka and Hirst.

 

So he'll want the money and we'll need the player.

Might not be if he has the rumoured relegation clause.

Has Kels already gone?

[Winchesterfox]

Even with a relegation clause, surely he would be earning more with us than anyone else would be willing to pay him.

Keep, Vardy will score some next season as we march back up
