West Ham consider Vardy return after £15m bid rejected

Jamie Vardy could be back in English football at the age of 39 after West Ham United placed him on their list of targets, according to Mirror Football.

The veteran striker is without a club after leaving Italian side Cremonese. West Ham are looking to add a new forward before the transfer window closes and have shortlisted Vardy as an option, the report says.

The interest comes after a £15m bid was rejected, leaving West Ham to explore alternatives in their search for a new striker. Vardy, who spent most of his career in English football before his spell in Italy, would add experience at the top level if a return materialises.

It remains to be seen whether West Ham will formalise their interest before the deadline, but the possibility of Vardy making a return to English football at 39 has already generated attention.
