Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has agreed on extending his contract with the Premier League club that will keep him at the club until 2023.

The 33-year-old's current deal at the King Power Stadium was due to expire in two years.

However, Vardy has been rewarded with a one-year extension after finishing last season as the Premier League's top scorer with 23 goals.

In 2020, Vardy will be in the Premier League clubs for eleven years since he joined City in 2012.

Vardy played a key role in helping Leicester win the Premier League title in 2015-16, scoring 24 goals that season.

In June he reached a significant career milestone by scoring his 100th Premier League goal, becoming the 29th person to achieve that feat.
