Vardy: New training HQ will help Leicester in transfer market

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy says the club's new training centre will help them in the transfer market.

City will have their first full campaign at their £100m facility at Seagrave this coming season and Vardy believes it will act as a lure to prospective signings as the club look to strengthen their squad this summer.

Vardy told CBS: “I think it will be important but it's just one little piece.

“You've got the successive European qualifications, and the way people are seeing us from the outside, the way we want to play and the results we're picking up, it's all going to be an attraction for new players.

“The new training ground is also perfect for developing the lads that are already here. I don't think you'll get a better training facility in the country, and maybe not in Europe.

"It's all been put in motion. It's what Khun Vichai wanted and Top has made sure it's been finished to the standard they want. That's the progression the club wants, it's off the pitch as well as on it."
