Wrexham have made an approach to sign Jamie Vardy on a free transfer, with the former Leicester City striker now available after his departure from the club.

The Welsh side's interest marks a notable development in what could be one of the more high-profile free-agent signings of the summer window, given Vardy's storied career in English football.

No deal has been confirmed at this stage, but Wrexham's move signals the club's ambition to bring in experienced talent as they continue their rise through the English football pyramid.
