Jamie Vardy and Gary Cahill step down from England duty
Jamie Vardy and Gary Cahill are both set to call time on their international careers after informing England manager Gareth Southgate that they want to focus on club football.
www.skysports.comHere’s what’s known about Jamie Vardy’s potential return to England as of now.
- Recent reports suggest Jamie Vardy is considering a return to England after his spell with Cremonese in Italy, with some outlets noting he could be available as a free agent this summer if Cremonese relegation is confirmed and his contract expires.[3][5]
- The situation is dynamic and dependent on his club status, contract, and interest from English clubs. Some outlets repeatedly frame it as speculation or potential interest rather than a confirmed move.[5][7][3]
- Historically, Vardy has left the England scene open to discussion but has not been a current England fixture since stepping back from international duty after 2018. Any recall would depend on Southgate’s selection plans and Vardy’s form and fitness.[1][4][9]
