According to the report of the prestigious 90min, Chelsea and Manchester United are monitoring Jamie Vardy's situation at Leicester City. The striker's current contract with the club expires next year, and although there is nothing concrete yet, many clubs in the Premier League are closely monitoring Vardy's situation at the Foxes.
Leicester must sell some players to secure the funds for new approaches, as well as to be in the right direction with the UEFA rules in terms of financial "fair-play". Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has left for Nice in France, a move that has surprised quite a few of the club's fans. Regarding this transfer, the president of the club reacted with an official statement. He said:
"During his time with us, and especially during the period as captain and vice-captain, Kasper has always been a player ready to take responsibility and lead the team. His influence and leadership, on and off the field, speak volumes for him as a professional footballer, but also as a person."
At the same time, Wesley Fofana and James Maddison are also being talked about a possible departure from the "foxes".
Considering this, it is still not clear how much interest Leicester really have in giving up their attacking giant. A few months ago, the team's manager, Brendan Rodgers, said that the club will make a decision on Vardy's future in the summer, and it seems that moment has arrived. Rodgers then stated:
"Most certainly there have been some talks behind the doors, but at the moment we are quite calm. He is very happy here. I am sure we will analyze the situation in the summer…”
However, at the moment neither Chelsea nor Manchester United have concretized an offer for the services of the Leicester City ace.
