Sky Sports Reports Jamie Vardy to Rangers | OneFootball

The Jamie Vardy-to-Rangers story is gathering momentum, and what began as a throwaway rumour in the Daily Mail has suddenly taken on a life of its own. As seen on Sky Sports News this morning, the headline was front and centre—Rangers are reportedly keen on the Leicester City striker, and that alone has set the Ibrox support alight. Whether it’s just noise or has any true substance, it’s now impossible to ignore.

At 38, Vardy is no spring chicken, but as Ibrox Noise rightly pointed out, this is a player with Premier League pedigree, Champions League experience, and a hunger for football that’s not yet diminished. He made over 30 appearances last season and, while no longer the fox-in-the-box of his peak, still knows exactly where the net is.

There’s scepticism, naturally. Rangers have been here before with big names in their twilight—Ramsey, Barton, Defoe—but unlike some of those, Vardy’s still delivering. As this Ibrox Noise piece notes, fan opinion is split. Some view it as a marketing stunt, others think his leadership and experience could galvanise the dressing room and teach our younger forwards a thing or two.

But money talks. Vardy’s current deal at Leicester is no small number, and even if he takes a pay cut, it would still be among Rangers’ top earners. Yet according to reports, the club are seriously looking at it. He fits the bill for a short-term striking option—someone who can come off the bench or lead the line with no fear.

Whether this is just tabloid fluff from the Mail or something more serious being pushed through internal channels, Sky Sports broadcasting it adds weight. It’s not just social media chatter anymore—there’s genuine noise here.

And now it’s up to Rangers to decide if this is a bold move… or another headline we’ll laugh at in hindsight.
