Former Leicester City and England striker Jamie Vardy has completed a move to Italian Serie A club Cremonese on a free transfer.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 38-year-old has signed a one-year contract with a further year on offer should the newly-promoted club avoid relegation.<\/p>\n

Vardy, who joined Leicester in 2012, has been without a club since his contract at the King Power Stadium expired in June.<\/p>\n

He is considered among Leicester’s greatest ever players having led the line in their Premier League title-winning 2015-16 season.<\/p>\n

Vardy scored 200 goals in 500 games for the club and won the FA Cup in 2021, while he also scored seven goals in 26 England appearances.<\/p>\n

Cremonese have won both of their opening Serie A matches, against Sassuolo and AC Milan, having returned to the Italian top flight this summer.<\/p>\n

Vardy could make his Cremonese debut on Monday, 15 September, away at Hellas Verona.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
