This Club Steals The Show After Jamie Vardy’s Successful Time At Leicester,He Is Rewarded With A World Record Move…
Jamie Vardy is weighing up a Rangers move which could offer him a Champions League return. It would represent a first chance of playing in European football’s top club competition since 2016-17, when he took part for Leicester City.
Vardy played nine Champions League games for Leicester in the season after their Premier League title win, scoring in games against Sevilla and Atletico Madrid. He is leaving the King Power Stadium this summer CT, though, after scoring 200 goals in 500 matches for the Foxes.
Jamie Vardy is set to have a number of options on the table after leaving Leicester City and at least one of those could give him a shot at Champions League football
The 38-year-old is likely to have a number of options on the table as a free agent. According to The Mail, Rangers are now in the mix for a player who has also attracted interest from Major League Soccer and the Saudi Pro League.
Rangers will enter next season’s Champions League in the second qualifying round after finishing second behind Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. They were eliminated from the same competition in the third qualifying round this term, losing to Dyamo Kyiv and dropping into the Europa League.
The Glasgow club have yet to appoint a new permanent manager after Barry Ferguson’s spell in interim charge. Russell Martin and Davide Ancelotti are among the favourites for the post, but early contender Steven Gerrard won’t be returning to Ibrox.
It wouldn’t be the first time Rangers have explored a move for Vardy. Their former manager Ally McCoist claimed in 2022 that they pushed for the striker when he was still at Fleetwood Town, only to be priced out of a move.
