Wolves Eye Stunning Jamie Vardy Swoop as Leeds Chase Club Legend – Transfer Twist “Can’t Be Ruled Out”*
Wolverhampton Wanderers are now being tipped as potential suitors for veteran striker Jamie Vardy, who is preparing to leave Leicester City this summer after over a decade of unforgettable service. The 38-year-old forward recently confirmed he will be departing the King Power Stadium at the end of the season, ending a remarkable 13-year journey that saw him become one of English football’s most prolific strikers.
Despite many assuming Vardy would retire with the Foxes, the former England star has made it clear that he wants to continue playing. With 144 goals and 50 assists across 341 Premier League matches, plus notable contributions in the Championship and on the international stage, Vardy remains a potent force, even in the twilight of his career.
Newly promoted Leeds United have been strongly linked with a move for the striker, seeing his leadership and experience as valuable assets for their top-flight return. Other clubs such as Wrexham and Birmingham City have also been floated as potential destinations. However, reports now indicate that Wolves could be dark horses in the race, with BBC Sport journalist Nick Mashiter suggesting that a move to Molineux shouldn’t be dismissed.
Mashiter noted during a live Q\&A that Vardy’s tally of nine goals this season—despite Leicester’s struggles in attack—proves he still has what it takes. He also mentioned Vardy’s good rapport with Dean Smith, his former Leicester manager, now coaching in the MLS. While Vardy may need to accept a pay cut, his hunger to continue competing in the Premier League could see him favour a move to a top-tier club like Wolves.
**Meanwhile, big changes could be on the horizon for Wolves’ current squad.** Rayan Ait-Nouri, one of the club’s brightest young stars, has switched agents—leaving Jorge Mendes’ Gestifute agency, which has long-standing ties to Wolves, in favour of CAA Stellar. According to renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, this could signal a major shift in the player’s future, with several clubs reportedly keeping tabs on the talented wing-back.
Romano hinted that the change of representation might indicate Ait-Nouri is seeking a move away from Molineux. While no specific clubs have been named, the inclusion of an image showing him near Liverpool’s Andy Robertson could be a subtle clue toward the Reds’ interest.
Whether it’s Vardy’s surprising Premier League future or Ait-Nouri’s looming decision, Wolves seem poised for an eventful and potentially transformative summer.
