Jamie Vardy: Leicester City striker says age just a number as he reaches 10 goals for season

Veteran striker Jamie Vardy says his age will not define him and credits Leicester City boss Enzo Maresca for helping him evolve this season.

The 37-year-old came off the bench to score twice in Saturday's 5-0 win at Stoke, which took his season tally to 10 goals in all competitions.

It had Leicester fans chanting for "10 more years" of Vardy, whose goals helped the Foxes to Premier League and FA Cup glory in the past decade.

"Age is just a number," Vardy said.

"You are as as old as you feel, how your legs feel, and I make sure I look after myself and make sure I recover right and do extra when I'm at home.
