EFL Analysis can exclusively reveal what Jamie Vardy’s next steps are as he begins life away from Leicester City.

Vardy waved goodbye to Leicester after 13 years last weekend, ending it in style with his 200th goal on his 500th appearance for the club.

The 38-year-old appeared emotionless during a post-match interview but deep down would’ve felt some sadness to leave behind a club he has been so loyal to as he couldn’t help avoid an immediate return to the Championship.

As Leicester prepare for a potential points deduction and the possibility of Russell Martin replacing Ruud van Nistelrooy, Vardy is playing the waiting game before he goes on to pastures new.

Jamie Vardy to decide on new club after Premier League season

EFL Analysis have been told by expert Graeme Bailey that Vardy is “waiting for the Premier League to finish”.

With just one game of the season to go, reports have linked FA Cup winners Crystal Palace to Vardy and remaining in the top flight could be appealing.

Aged 38, becoming a mainstay starter at a top flight club is unlikely and would perhaps be better suited to a second choice, maybe even third choice.

Sheffield Wednesday want Vardy, who is a boyhood fan of the Owls, but wages could be a stumbling block.

Another club also interested in his services may be Wrexham, however, a move to the Championship might not appeal since he could’ve done that by staying with Leicester.

Jamie Vardy leaves Leicester for the final time

It’s hard to imagine a world without Vardy in a Leicester shirt but the time has finally come.

In a social media post earlier this week, the Foxes shared a photo of the legendary forward leaving the Seagrave training centre with his belongings.

Now it’s really sinking in for the Foxes as they end one chapter and begin to prepare a new story.
