Jamie Vardy will depart Cremonese this summer as his contract expires. The 39-year-old striker scored seven goals and provided three assists in 29 appearances but couldn't prevent the Italian club's relegation. Despite his limited impact, Vardy remains confident in his ability to compete at high levels. His departure ends a disappointing season for both parties as Cremonese faces Serie B next term.

Vardy, a Leicester legend, scored 200 goals in 500 appearances for the Foxes, famously winning the Premier League and FA Cup. The England international's future includes potential Premier League interest, with Dutch side Feyenoord showing summer interest. His seven goals in 26 England caps included appearances at Euro 2016 and the 2018 World Cup, cementing his status as one of his generation's most effective forwards.

Vardy's departure from Cremonese signals his determination to continue playing at the highest level possible. The striker still enjoys football and believes he can contribute to a top-tier club. With Feyenoord among interested parties, the 39-year-old may yet extend his remarkable career in Europe's elite competitions.
