Wrexham hit with major Jamie Vardy blow as rival boss hints at stunning deal
Wrexham have been linked with a move for Jamie Vardy, but Rangers have now emerged as a potential destination and manager Russell Martin has addressed the rumours Rangers boss Russell Martin has refused to rule out signing Jamie Vardy this summer, with the former England international available on a free transfer. Vardy left Leicester after 13 years last season and has also been linked with a move to Wrexham. The 38-year-old scored 145 Premier League goals for Leicester, a figure that puts him 14th on the all-time list, and Rangers have been mooted as a potential destination. And when asked about a move for Vardy following a pre-season friendly against Club Brugge, Martin refused to be drawn. "I think I've been asked about so many players," he said. "Some miles away, some on the money. So, basically, I'm not going to give you an answer on that. But I guess you'll find out who's real and who's not in the next few weeks. "I think we definitely want to do more [signings], for sure. And also probably some players need to move on as well at some point because the squad's going to start looking very big and very heavy." Although Wrexham have long been credited with an interested in Vardy, reports emerged from Italy recently claiming that Genoa had been in pole position to sign the striker. It was claimed that the club's sporting director, Flavio Ricciardella, was keen on signing Vardy. Riccardella is said to have lined up a deal which would have been financed by support from sponsors, but Genoa boss Patrick Vieira reportedly vetoed the move. Vardy has said he believes he can still compete at the highest level, telling Sky Sports back in May that he has no doubts about his ability. "No, but that's just me," he said. " Football is a crazy world. "You never know what's going to happen. 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, it's what I've done since I was a little kid so long may that continue." Reflecting on his time at Leicester, Vardy added: "You can speak to my family and they'll all say I'm emotionless. It might do at the end of the game or whatever, but until that happens, I'm literally just focused on the game. "You don't get a chance to look back on it. It's about seeing out the season with momentum to start next season. I keep saying it and it's weird, but you don't get a chance to look back on it. Because you're in it, the season finishes, you shut off completely. "Mentally and physically, it's a killer. It does you in. So by the time you've then had your couple of weeks to switch off, you're then back in, getting ready for the new season. So it just keeps rolling into one."
