Not much I can do if they want to make a movie about me says Leicester rags to riches star Vardy

Leicester City star Jamie Vardy has admitted he has been approached by Hollywood screenwriter Adrian Butchart about a possible movie about his rags-to-riches story.

However, he claims that he doesn't have much of a say in the development of a possible movie about his career and rise to the top of the Premier League.

When asked about the meeting with Butchart, he said: "I met him and asked him if he was mad. It was in the papers and I didn't know if it was true.

"It turned out it was. That is up to them – if they want to do that there is nothing I can do.

"You do get a chance to think about things when you're at home but that is when you want to relax and forget about football for a bit. Honestly, you don't really get time to stop and think about things.

"We have a job to do. That is all we concentrate on, going game by game."
