His contributions did give the Grigiorossi a fighting chance towards the end of the season, but couldn&#8217;t keep them up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He has had plenty of time to choose his next chapter and could be coming closer to a decision. Here are a few options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-table-of-contents yoast-table-of-contents\"><h2>What could be Jamie Vardy&#8217;s next club?<\/h2><ul><li><a href=\"#h-dream-west-ham\" data-level=\"3\">Dream: West Ham<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-realistic-leicester-city\" data-level=\"3\">Realistic: Leicester City<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-wildcard-sao-paulo\" data-level=\"3\">Wildcard: Sao Paulo<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-squawka-suggests-sheffield-wednesday\" data-level=\"3\">Squawka Suggests: Sheffield Wednesday<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-dream-west-ham\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dream: West Ham<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">West Ham would be, far and away, the best alternative all things considered. Living in London, playing in a great Championship squad that should win promotion, and not being fully responsible for the goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taty Castellanos looks a level above the English second tier, Joel Piroe has a great goalscoring record in the division and Pablo Felipe probably won&#8217;t look too out of place as he did in the Premier League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, there is room for another striker. Nuno Espirito Santo has essentially been playing in a 4-4-2 to start the new campaign and Felipe has already picked up an injury. Vardy could fit in nicely as a back-up option without placing too big of a burden on an academy youngster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 39-year-old has also enjoyed relatively recent success in the Championship, when helping Leicester City go straight back up in 2023\/24. He started just 18 of his 35 games but still managed to find the net 18 times that year.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='vccm vccm-compare'data-compare=\"xqU1s-LcmLMZeqP5cKYaF\" data-show-sponsor=\"false\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-realistic-leicester-city\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Realistic: Leicester City<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A good, old-fashioned returned is always on the cards for any player who has any history at any club. Vardy is a Leicester legend and could very much be of service for the Foxes under Russell Martin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The League One feels more appropriate for his current level than the Championship and Leicester are in dire need of forwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bobby DeCordova Reid has started up front in their two games this season, but missed one big chance in the Carabao Cup and couldn&#8217;t convert any of his three attempts worth a combined 0.36 xG in the league opener. Next up is new signing Admir Bristric, who had been playing in Slovenia prior to his move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Considering the club and the opportunity there would be for him, it&#8217;s a move that makes sense. Though Vardy has only just left Leicester City, so maybe a return 12 months after his exit wouldn&#8217;t have such a big impact.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='vccm vccm-compare'data-compare=\"ydWp3nIL8_lKmx1E8wca0\" data-show-sponsor=\"false\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-wildcard-sao-paulo\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wildcard: Sao Paulo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vardy has already gone the &#8216;wildcard&#8217; route last year when signing for Cremonese. Now, a different Serie A could be on the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brazilian sleeping giants Sao Paulo have emerged as a potential suitor for the Englishman. The Tricolor are looking to make impactful signings halfway through the league campaign as they stryggle for form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They started the season off well with three wins and one draw from their first four fixtures. And still decided to dismiss head coach and former legendary striker Hernan Crespo after that run. Two other managers have come in since but both have struggled to right the ship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brazilian journalists have already reported that a deal is increasingly unlikely, and Sao Paulo don&#8217;t exactly need strikers. Former Hammer Jonathan Calleri is club captain, No.10 Luciano is a fan-favourite and they also have Andre Silva in the squad, who previously played in Europe as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it would be a great twist to see Jamie Vardy playing in the home of Joga Bonito.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='vccm vccm-compare'data-compare=\"ky9hNaGCkcGu9xVK9dRsN\" data-show-sponsor=\"false\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-squawka-suggests-sheffield-wednesday\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Squawka Suggests: Sheffield Wednesday<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It doesn&#8217;t need to be at Leicester City for Vardy to make an emotional return. The striker was bron in Sheffield and grew up a Wednesday fan, even playing in their academy as a teenager before being released at age 16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vardy himself has already stated publicly that there is little chance of him returning to the Owls. But they are trying to reconnect with the fans and the community after going into adminstration last year and have already brought back club legend Barry Bannan after a brief stint at Millwall. A Vardy homecoming would be a great follow-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It wouldn&#8217;t be an easy move, considering their financial state and Vardy&#8217;s wages. But as we mentioned before, the League One seems more like his level and he would likely start ahead of the likes of Jamal Lowe, Mason Burstow and Harry Gray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changing his mind to help his boyhood club in one of their lowest moments would be a nice story. Especially considering he still has enough left in the tank for the third tier.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='vccm vccm-compare'data-compare=\"1Vlb1zuaQWYcJ-2F5OW2j\" data-show-sponsor=\"false\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jamie Vardy is still a free agent as curtains raise in English football and European leagues as a whole.
