Jamie Vardy snubbed lucrative transfer to reunite with former manager after Leicester won Premier League promotion

Vardy is entering his 13th season with Leicester as he looks to add to his impressive Premier League goalscoring record

 

JAMIE VARDY was offered the chance to reunite with Dean Smith this summer.

The Leicester legend, 37, scored 18 league goals last season as the Foxes secured promotion back to the top flight at the first time of asking.

 

 

Shortly after winning the Championship, Leicester lost manager Enzo Maresca and star playmaker Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to Chelsea.

They could have seen Vardy walk out of the exit door too had he accepted Smith's offer to join him at MLS side Charlotte.

Speaking to GiveMeSport, Smith revealed: "I did text him [Vardy] and see if he wanted to come over to America.

"I knew that it was going to be hard once he took Leicester back to the Premier League. [I love] his enthusiasm for the game.

"He doesn't train as much as he used to, and he won't get as many minutes as he used to, but if he's used right he'll be really, really good [this season].

"You saw the goals he scored in the Championship last year."

Smith coached Leicester for eight games at the end of the 2022/23 season as they were relegated from the Premier League.

 

He won just two matches in charge and left in June 2023, two months after taking the job.

 

After six months unemployed, he joined Charlotte in December last year and has won 10 of 27 games, with the club sixth in the Eastern Conference.

Meanwhile, Vardy is set to begin his 13TH season with Leicester when they host Tottenham in their Premier League opener on Monday.

He has scored 136 goals in 307 Premier League games for the 2016 champions

I found the link for the article. It is the most AI written article I have seen for a while. It goes off on some right tangents. It starts with talking about Dean texting Vardy and ends talking about Jack Grealish getting a text from Craig Shakespere. 

I wouldn't recommend clickling the link without an ad blocker though. Sweet Jesus this thing is swamped with ads : https://www.givemesport.com/dean-smith-asked-jamie-vardy-to-sign-for-charlotte-fc/

'reunite with former manager' as if there was a lifelong bond with Smith

Not sure that a) it needed another thread or b) that givemesport should ever be taken seriously as a credible source for football news

There isn’t a general thread and I’m not going to spend 10 minutes going through page after page to look. In the first few pages there is an appreciation thread, a statue thread, signs a new contract, Jamie vardy is my password thread. If it bothers you that much click it on report it and ask to merge it.

Search feature (by topic title too) is available and easy to use.

The one below is probably the best one to use for all things Jamie BUT there are quite a few that feature him.

AI written and full of ads. Isn't it sad to see what the future looks like? Only silver lining is a lot of scumbag tabloid journalists might not be able to carry out their behaviour in the future.

I would love to know all the offers he got and where from at the end of last season.
