Jamie Vardy recently posted a tweet to commemorate the eight-year anniversary of the day that he signed for Leicester City and this post has caught the attention of some Sheffield Wednesday fans.
Vardy was a member of Sheffield Wednesday’s youth academy in his younger days and as per Yorkshire Live, he has also been “a lifelong Owl”. This article from Yorkshire Live explains that the 33-year-old striker “has never lost his love for the club”, despite being released by the Owls at 16-years-old “for being too small”.
Some Owls fans have flocked to Vardy’s recent tweet commemorating the eight-year anniversary of his arrival at Leicester City to share their appreciation for the striker, with some calling for him to return to Hillsborough one day.

What do we think?
Only 28 players have scored more goals than Vardy has scored in the history of the Premier League. Additionally, the Leicester City man is also currently the top goalscorer in England’s top flight for the 2019/20 campaign. With all of this in mind, as well as his history with the club, it may be understandable why these Wednesday fans would like to see Vardy at Hillsborough.
