Wrexham have made their feelings on completing a sensational move to sign Leicester City legend Jamie Vardy if they get promoted to the Championship.

Vardy's contract with the Foxes expires this summer, with the club now almost certain to be relegated to the Championship at the first time of asking.

According to Sky Sports' Rob Dorsett, the 38-year-old has no plans to retire from football yet and still harbours hopes of playing in the Premier League, though hasn't ruled out extending his 13-year stay at the King Power Stadium.

He has scored seven goals for the Foxes this season, though has started every game in Leicester's barren run of over 14 hours without a Premier League goal.

Speaking on talkSPORT after Leicester's latest defeat - a 3-0 home loss to Newcastle on Monday - former Watford star Troy Deeney tipped Vardy to sign for either Everton or West Ham this summer.

The 38-year-old's age would potentially tempt Everton to look elsewhere as the Toffees prepare for their first transfer window under the ownership of the Friedkin Group, while that could also be a limitation for a West Ham deal.

But the 2016 Premier League winner's high profile could make him a perfect acquisition for Wrexham, should the Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney majority-owned club earn promotion from League One.

The Red Dragons are currently occupying the second and final automatic promotion spot in the third tier, three points ahead of nearest rivals Wycombe.

Phil Parkinson's side had a brief blip, in terms of results, around the turn of the year, but have won six of their last eight matches.

Three of their final five opponents - Charlton, Blackpool and Lincoln - are all in the top half, however, so there is still work to do yet.

However, Wrexham have already made it clear as to whether they would want to sign Vardy should the opportunity arise.

Speaking to SPORTbible last May, the club's former chief executive Humphrey Ker explained: "There's nothing to say that Jamie Vardy wouldn't be a great Wrexham player.

"It's not a name I've had mentioned inside the building before but, you know, age and profile wouldn't put us off."

Joining Wrexham would also give Vardy and his wife, Rebekah, the opportunity to feature in the 'Welcome to Wrexham' series on Disney+, which has opened the club up to new audiences in North America.

As per the club's most recent accounts, 52.1 per cent of non-matchday revenue for the club was generated from the Rest of the World, primarily North America.

Brand expert Emily Austen told the Daily Mail last year: "Rebekah particularly has had a significant amount of negativity on social media; featuring on the show as a consequence of the signing would likely enable a more empathic response from fans, and connect them with a more sympathetic narrative.

"It's not out of the question that there might be spin off shows with the WAGs, and regular air time on prime time television is hard to come by.

"It would secure visibility for the couple that they are unlikely to achieve themselves."
