Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has told James Maddison there’s “still more to come” despite turning 36 in January.
Jamie Vardy said: “It’s not bad from a kid from non-league, is it? It’s more, especially when you’re a striker, working on making sure you’re in the right positions to get on the end of things. Especially when I’ve been here, I’ve not been involved in the build-up, but sometimes you don’t need to be, as long as you’re in the right place at the right time to finish the chances. I’m the first person to congratulate my teammates when I’ve scored a goal, it’s not just me. If it weren’t for me fellow players, I probably wouldn’t have half of the goals that I’ve got. To hear them stats, it’s unbelievable to know where I’ve come from and to have that many. But there’s still more to come. It’s not over yet. I go onto the pitch every week thinking I can score, waiting to score, so I’m still hungry to get more. We’ve got another good season to look forward to now. Getting the pre-season fitness out of the way in this heat, which is always good for us, but as soon as the first whistle blows in the Premier League, it’s straight back to wanting to go back to what I’ve been doing over the years and scoring as many as possible.”
