Jamie Vardy completes fairytale ending at Leicester City, now he must make the right decision for his next move

The party is now officially over for Jamie Vardy at Leicester City, but it ended in the perfect way and sets him up for his next move brilliantly.

We’ve known for a few weeks now that Jamie Vardy will be leaving Leicester in the summer when his contract comes to an end.

Over the years, Vardy firmly established himself as a Leicester hero; a legend, even. Winning the Premier League and FA Cup with the Foxes helps, of course.

After his latest outing against Ipswich Town this weekend, we will not see Vardy in a Leicester shirt again. But, he capped off his time at the KP Stadium in the most perfect way.

Jamie Vardy ends Leicester City career in style

Despite there being one game left, Vardy’s final game for Leicester was decided to be the home clash with Ipswich for one big reason: It was his 500th appearance for the Foxes.

It had to be, right? How perfect to walk away from the club you love with a nice, round, 500 games under your belt.

What’s more, the game took place on May 18th, which is the anniversary of Jamie Vardy’s initial transfer to Leicester back in 2012.

Statistics Jamie Vardy at Leicester
Appearances 500
Goals 200
Assists 71

All he needed to make the occasion even more special was a goal; a goal that would take his Leicester City tally to 200.

It was written in the stars that Vardy would deliver exactly that, and just before the half-hour mark at the KP Stadium on Sunday afternoon, the 38-year-old sent the crowd into jubilation with a neat finish after a clever run.

From teary tributes before kick-off, to rapturous celebrations after it, it was all a very fitting end to the Vardy fairytale at Leicester. But now, he needs to make a huge decision.
