Jamie Vardy double secures Championship title for Leicester amid uncertainty over future

The Telegraph  

The future of Jamie Vardy hangs very much in the balance with newly-promoted Leicester City but, if these were his last two goals after a dozen years with the club, they at least guaranteed the significant reward of the Championship title. And it was a performance that, for the very first time had manager Enzo Maresca tantalisingly hinting that the veteran will stay at the club after promotion. If I decide he will stay.” Ten years on from scoring 16 times in helping Leicester reach the Premier League, the former England striker made it 18 for this campaign as he returned them whence they came. There was certainly a mood of mutual appreciation from the 5,700 travelling fans, presumably 72 hours into celebrations which would have begun on Friday after Leeds’ surprising defeat at QPR promoted their team, and which carried on for a long time after the final whistle of this perfunctory end of season stroll.
