Jamie Vardy wore a special shirt with his wife's nickname emblazoned on the back during Cremonese's match against AS Roma on Sunday.

Vardy, 38, made the move to northern Italy with his partner Rebekah and their children this summer, after spending a glittering 13 years with Leicester City.

The Englishman's next destination was subject to months of speculation before he chose to settle down in a luxurious villa worth a reported £2million in the town of Salo.

His switch to the Serie A new boys has meant acclimatising to a new culture, way of life and language.
