Premier League Striker Wants A Race With Jamie Vardy

Who's the fastest?

Jamie Vardy was one of the fastest players in the Premier League last season and one striker has already offered to race him. The striker? Leicester City's new signing Ahmed Musa.

The Nigerian international signed from Russian club CSKA Moscow for a reported £15 million and we expect the striker to be key part of Claudio Ranieri's title defending side.

In the friendly against Barcelona on Wednesday night, Musa showed the speed he can produce and he has already offered teammate Vardy a race.

"I haven't tried racing against Jamie Vardy yet, but maybe we can do it in training soon. I've already found that the squad at Leicester is like a family and with that spirit, we are confident we can continue to achieve big things this season.

"I really like the coach. He is a very good manager who encourages all the players and is always positive."

A race between Vardy and Musa? We'll put our money on the new Leicester City striker.
