European teams will require homework to take on Leicester - Vardy

Jamie Vardy has warned next season's European opponents that they will need to do their research on Leicester City.

The Foxes have surprised the football world this season by dominating the Premier League to win their very first top flight title in the cub's 132-year history.

Next season they will enter the UEFA Champions League and while some teams alter their style of play to compete on the continental stage, star striker Vardy suggests that Leicester are happy with their counter-attacking plan under Claudio Ranieri.

"We have got ourselves into this situation playing that way, why change it?" he said. "It has worked for us, hopefully it will work for us again.

"Leicester has been on everyone's radar all season and so a lot of European teams have probably been watching us.

"They will need to do their homework and we will do our homework on them."

Leicester will finish off their remarkable season with a trip to last season's premiers Chelsea this weekend.
