Pick your Leicester player of the season
We asked our Leicester fan contributor for their four candidates for player of the season and you can now select your top one.
Jamie VardyDespite at one stage having an 11-game goal drought, Vardy is our top goalscorer this season on a tear-inducing nine goals (the bar is low this year). His performances have fallen short of his usual high standards, but he has still brought some of his magic to the back of the HermansenThe first half of the season, before his month-long injury, Mads had placed himself firmly in the shop window for some of the top clubs. He was pulling off some spectacular saves - his performance at Arsenal genuinely avoided a cricket score (a total of 13 saves in the match). He has shown his talent and agility in many games, and has now had surgery to get himself fit for next season - but who his club will be at the start of next 2025-26 is up for debate. Fans expect a summer sale of the young Dane and he would be worthy of any Premier League number one El KhannoussPossibly the only true highlight of the outfield players this season. The 20-year-old didn't come cheap at £21m but has shown fans some glimmer of hope with his ability on the ball, defensive tenacity and the odd wonderstrike. It has been a pleasure to watch him develop and, although his stats this season aren't spectacular (two goals, three assists), the potential is there and we just hope he stays this summer as the Championship would be all the better with him in it next year. He is such an exciting NdidiHis lengthy injury mid-season coincided with Leicester's goal drought and many would argue this is no coincidence as we are a different outfit, especially defensively, when he doesn't feature. His stats do back that up, ranking highly in the squad for tackles, interceptions and blocks. By his own admittance, playing higher up the pitch has transformed his game, in good ways and bad, but his assured place in the starting XI is unmatched by any other midfielder in the your 2024-25 Leicester player of the season from our shortlist hereAnd tell us why you're picking who you are, or why you'd have gone for another player not on the list, here
