The English striker receives a warm welcome from fans as he prepares to make his mark in Serie A.
Star striker Jamie Vardy has officially arrived in Italy, touching down at Linate Prime airport just after 11:40 PM. He was met with an enthusiastic welcome from around fifty Cremonese supporters who had traveled from their city to Milan. Vardy took time to greet his new fans, sharing smiles, posing for photos, and signing autographs. The former Leicester City goalscorer is considered the Grifoni`s most significant summer acquisition. In the coming hours, the 37-year-old will undergo medical examinations and finalize his contract, making him available to coach Nicola.
A New Chapter Begins
Vardy is expected to use the upcoming international break to integrate with the team and prepare for his Serie A debut, which could come as early as Monday, September 15th, against Verona at the Bentegodi stadium. After a remarkable 13-year tenure with Leicester, where he famously helped them win the Premier League title in 2016, the veteran striker became a free agent. He departed the club following their relegation last season, despite contributing 10 goals in 36 appearances across the Premier League and FA Cup.
Cremonese`s attacking options are further boosted by the expected arrival of 23-year-old Jeremy Sarmiento, who will join on loan from Brighton. These additions provide coach Nicola with a formidable “stellar attack.” The recent victories against strong teams like Milan and Sassuolo have already ignited significant enthusiasm among the fanbase. With the arrival of Jamie Vardy, the Cremonese faithful are now daring to dream big.
