Jamie Vardy is set to become a free agent after his first season with Serie A club Cremonese ended in their relegation. His one-year contract with Cremonese included an option for an additional year if the team avoided relegation. As this condition was not met, he is free to move unless he signs a new contract to play in Italy's second division. A return to Leicester City is a potential option. Joe Crann stated that he felt a move to Leicester would be a better fit for Vardy, should the player choose a League One club for his next transfer this summer. There was considerable speculation about disagreements between Jamie Vardy and board member Jon Rudkin towards the end of Vardy's first spell with the club. This speculation was intensified by Vardy's omission of Rudkin from his farewell speech last April. When Vardy returned to Leicester in January, his wife, Rebekah Vardy, allegedly stated that he would not remain at the club while Jon Rudkin was also there. Jon Rudkin has since been named the new Chief Football Officer at the King Power, which indicates he will stay with the club. This situation could complicate a potential return for the striker.

Rebekah Vardy has described the prospect of Jamie Vardy, the 39-year-old English Centre-Forward, returning to Leicester City in a player-manager capacity as interesting. She made the comment during a Q&A session on her Instagram page when questioned about the possibility. Vardy left Leicester last summer after 13 years at the club, joining Italian side Cremonese when his contract expired. In the same Q&A, Rebekah Vardy also expressed that it was highly unlikely her husband would go into management after retiring, suggesting he might not have the patience for it. She also hinted that there was more to his departure from Leicester than was publicly known, stating it was not a decision made lightly. This conversation comes at a time when Leicester City are looking for a new manager after dismissing Marti Cifuentes. Vardy's contract with US Cremonese expires in June 2026. In 18 Serie A appearances this season, the former England international, who earned 26 caps and scored 7 goals for his country, has registered 5 goals and 1 assist. Transfermarkt currently lists his market value as €1.00m.
