Vardy signs new Leicester deal

 

Leicester City have announced Jamie Vardy has rejected the chance to join Arsenal and signed a new four-year deal keeping him at the club until 2020.

 

Vardy, 29, has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal after the Gunners activated his £20m release clause but the England international delayed his decision to consider his future.

 

The Leicester frontman has now decided to reject a move to Arsenal and has committed his long-term future to the Premier League champions.
