Leicester signing Raul Uche: I want to play with Vardy

Raul Uche is excited to be joining Leicester City.

The teenage Rayo Vallecano striker, 18, admits he hopes to soon play with England ace Jamie Vardy.

Uche told Marca: "He is a sensational player. He has a spectacular strike and I like the character and intensity that he puts on the field. I am looking forward to working with him and learning from him.

"To be his replacement? No. I see that Vardy is here to stay.

"More than his substitute what I want is to play with him one day."
