Jamie Birdy is a free agent this summer after announcing his decision to leave Leicester City, and he also made it clear that he will not retire.
The veteran striker could certainly be an attractive option for many clubs in the Premier League and elsewhere, but his future remains unresolved.
Reports say that Celtic and the Rangers have both seen Vardy this summer, but they claim that La Liga Giants Valencia is even tied to the 38-year-old.
But Bookie now has Manchester United as a surprising favourite to make Vardy’s next club.
Can Jamie Birdie work for Manchester United?
It remains to be seen how much there is in this particular forwarding news, but the bookmakers’ market can be a useful indicator of what’s going on.
Man Utd needs a new striker this summer, but will they really put Vardy’s deal at his age?
Considering Vardy is free, it may not be the worst idea. It’s also probably a short-term option, and will probably come in as a cover for another striker.
The former England International looks good enough to make an impact at the highest level and could be great in the dressing room for younger players to learn.
Jamie Vardy’s days in Leicester are over
What a career verse I had at Leicester. There, he certainly achieved the greatest player status of Fox’s ever.
Arrived from non-league football, Vardy quickly established himself in the championship and Premier League.
His excellent goalscoring form helped LCFC win the 2015/16 title and win against Chelsea in the 2021 FA Cup final.
It will be interesting to see what Vardy will do next before he brings time to his playing career.
