“I’m gutted that this day is coming, but I knew it was inevitable,” Vardy said in a video shared by Leicester on social media. “I’ve had 13 unbelievable years at this club, with lots of success and some downs, but the majority have been highs.
“It’s finally time to call it a day, and while I’m devastated about it, I think the timing is right.”
