The manager of Arsenal, Arsene Wenger, wished success to Jamie Vardi in Leicester.
The British national was among the transfer targets of the Gooners, but he decided to stay at the King Power Stadium and yesterday officially renewed his contract with the Foxes for other four years.
`I several times mentioned that he will remain in Leicester. Yes, we were interested in his services, but he took another decision, which considered the best for himself. This is his choice, we respect it and wish him good luck.`, said Wenger.
Before he renewed his contract, Arsenal activated a liberating clause of Vardi worth ? 20 million, but he didn`t want to go in the Gooners.
So Arsenal will be looking for a new striker to compete with Olivier Giroux and DannyHouellebecq. Among the names is that of Alvaro Morata, who a few days ago formally returned to Real Madrid.
