Wolverhampton Wanderers have become the leading contenders in the race to sign Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, following a major effort to secure his services. Wolves have made the most significant move so far in their attempt to bring the experienced forward to Molineux this summer. Vardy has indicated his intention to leave Leicester City this summer after their relegation to the Championship. Wolves aim to acquire him as an impact player rather than a guaranteed starter. Although Vardy has expressed some reservations about the transfer, Wolves are ready to move quickly to finalize the agreement and are taking advantage of Leeds' hesitancy.

Wolves are front-runners to sign Jamie Vardy, with the veteran striker determined to keep playing in the Premier League. Vardy has announced he is leaving relegated Leicester City this summer. Wolves boss Vitor Pereira is favorite to land him as he prepares for the exit of Matheus Cunha, most likely to Manchester United. Transfermarkt currently estimates his market value at 1.00m euros.
