Jamie Vardy will begin life as a club owner next year when Rochester NY compete in a new feeder league for Major League Soccer, the US’s premier football competition.
The Leicester forward took a minority stake in Rochester NY FC earlier this year and it was revealed on Monday that they would compete in the inaugural MLS Next Pro, which aims to develop players to compete at the top level in future.
Of the 21 teams in the league, 20 will have direct links to MLS club, with Vardy’s Rochester the only independent one.
