Jamie Vardy has rejected a move to Saudi Arabia out of hand after several clubs, including Khaleej FC, expressed interest in signing the Leicester City striker. The 36-year-old considers a move to the Gulf state a non-starter for him and his family. Vardy was identified by numerous Saudi Pro League clubs as a potential marquee signing this summer.
Vardy has 12 months remaining on his contract at Leicester, who were relegated to the Championship last season, during which he scored three league goals. It remains to be seen whether he plays a central role under Enzo Maresca, the new Leicester manager.
