Jamie Vardy, 39-year-old English forward, has attracted the interest of West Ham this transfer window after becoming available following the end of his contract with Cremonese. The English club, recently relegated to Championship, has inquired about his availability and is looking to strengthen their attack before the start of the league competition.

Jamie Vardy, an option for the new West Ham

West Ham has looked into Vardy's situation as part of their search for a new forward. The London-based team needs to bolster their attacking options after relegation from the Premier League and is preparing for the return to the English second division.

Vardy ended his spell at Cremonese after a season in Serie A. The striker played 29 matches and scored 7 goals, but couldn't prevent the Italian side from finishing 18th and being relegated. His contract expired on June 30, 2026, making him available to join any club on a free transfer.

The proposal from West Ham comes at a time when Nuno Espírito Santo is seeking another focal point for his attack. The team began the 2026/27 season with a win against Portsmouth in the Carabao Cup but continues to search for a forward before their Championship debut against Burnley.

The forward considers his next destination

The deal is not yet finalized. According to reports in England, Vardy is attracting interest from various clubs and has decided to take time before choosing his next destination. West Ham is now one of the options on the table, although there is no agreement between the parties yet.

The economic situation favors the English club as Vardy is without a contract after leaving Cremonese. There is no transfer negotiation between the two clubs; however, the contract that West Ham would offer the forward remains to be defined.

The English option comes after Vardy was linked with Spanish football. Sevilla recently received information about his availability, but a source close to the club stated that his signing was not being considered a viable option.

In the Spanish market, Valencia had also been mentioned as a possible destination for Vardy, while in England, his name had been linked with other teams. The situation has now changed with West Ham's interest, aiming to capitalize on his status as a free agent to add experience to a squad competing in Championship.

Jamie Vardy must decide among the offers

Vardy has not yet chosen a club. The forward, who will turn 40 on January 11, 2027, is keeping his professional career open after his first season outside of England.

The next step will depend on the terms presented by West Ham and other offers on the table. Jamie Vardy will assess his options in the coming days before deciding where to continue his career while the London club hopes to persuade him to take on the upcoming season in Championship.
