Ambitious Wrexham To Target Jamie Vardy

According to Alan Nixon, owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are willing to invest up to £10million in a striker this summer, however it is possible that a percentage of this budget could be used towards the wages of a marquee signing signing such as Jamie Vardy.

Simultaneously, Manchester United have reportedly been offered Vardy as part of their search for cost-effective attacking options this summer. With high-profile targets proving expensive, United may turn to free agents like Vardy, Callum Wilson, and Dominic Calvert‑Lewin as potential backups or squad options. This feels like a last-resort option though for the Premier League side.

Former Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has made it clear that retirement is not on his agenda following his departure from the club. Reflecting on whether he still feels capable of performing at the highest level, he said:

“I’ll keep going until my legs tell me I need to stop. My legs are fine. I’m doing a sport that I love… so long may that continue.”

These statements underline Vardy’s ongoing drive and determination to continue performing at elite level—and reinforce why clubs like Wrexham and Manchester United might find his availability an intriguing opportunity this summer.
