Leicester City's Jamie Vardy has been one of the most prolific goal-scorers in English football history, and his contributions to the club have made him an iconic figure at the King Power Stadium.

Born on February 16, 1988, in Southend-on-Sea, England, Vardy began his career with local side Colchester United before moving to Leicester City in 2004. He quickly established himself as a key player for the Foxes, scoring 17 goals in his debut season and going on to become one of the most feared strikers in the Premier League.

Vardy's impressive form continued throughout his time at Leicester, with he netted over 200 league goals during his seven-year spell at the club. His goalscoring prowess was not just limited to the Premier League though, as he also scored 55 goals in three seasons in the UEFA Champions League.

In addition to his goalscoring ability, Vardy is known for his work rate and tireless effort on the pitch. He is also a vocal leader both on and off the field, inspiring his teammates and fans alike with his passion and dedication.

Off the pitch, Vardy has been involved in various charitable initiatives, including his own charity foundation, which provides support for disadvantaged children and young people.

Despite his success, Vardy has never won a major trophy with Leicester City, but his contribution to the club and the sport as a whole cannot be overstated. With his departure from the club in January 2018, many will remember Vardy fondly as one of the greatest strikers to grace the Premier League.
