Jamie Vardy, 37, continues to excel for Leicester City, recently scoring his sixth goal of the season and reaching 100 goal involvements at King Power Stadium. His impressive conversion rate of 33.3% ranks him among the top strikers in the Premier League. Despite his age, Vardy remains a key player, adapting to different tactical approaches under five managers. He has missed only one league game this season and is noted for his speed, maintaining 99% of his top speed from seven years ago. Vardy's performance has led to speculation about his future, with Leicester's new manager, Ruud van Nistelrooy, expressing confidence in Vardy's ability to continue playing at a high level. Vardy signed a one-year contract last summer, and discussions about an extension may be forthcoming.
