Jamie Vardy, who joined the new "Cremonese" team, named his childhood favorite player in Italian football. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Vardy spoke about Italian football and emphasized that his childhood hero was Alessandro Del Piero. He said he had followed this player closely since his youth.
It should be recalled that Vardy left Leicester City as a free agent in the summer of 2025 and signed a contract with Cremonese. Earlier, the footballer stated that his family played an important role in his move to the new team.
After the first two rounds of the current season, Cremonese is an unexpected leader in the Serie A championship, having accumulated 6 points. At the end of last season, they returned to the top-tier league from Serie B.
This result indicates that the team has strengthened, and there is hope that they will show good performance throughout the season.
