Leicester City striker, Jamie Vardy says he has no regret snubbing Arsenal to remain with the Foxes when they came knocking last summer. According to BT Sports, the England forward hinted that the Champions League adventure with Leicester coupled with the inability of Arsenal to produce desirable results both at the domestic and continental levels vindicated his decision.
According to him "I want to win as much as possible, I don’t want to only have one Premier League medal in my drawer at home – it would be an empty glass cabinet. I’m contracted to Leicester and we will see how high we can go. In the future, who knows?”
He, however, disclosed that future offers from other bigger clubs will not be approached in the same manner.
“Just because I turned down Arsenal, that was my choice, but if another offer came in it would be the same in that I would look at it and work out the pros and cons. But no, turning down Arsenal doesn’t mean I wouldn’t look at another offer.”
“I’ll never regret anything I’ve chosen to do. I’m a bit of a psychic, I could see the little downfall they are on now. They had qualified for the Champions League for the last 20 years until last year. That was something to think about. Leicester were also in the Champions League and on a different night at home against Atletico (Madrid) we could have gone even further. But there were all sorts (of reasons). Football was the main thing but moving the family when I’d just bought a house would have been a laugh – not."
