Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy has played down reports which have suggested that he could leave the King Power Stadium.

Since the start of January, Vardy has been linked with a switch to either Everton or Chelsea, who have been keen to bring in new attacking players for the second half of the campaign.

However, Vardy has said that he remains fully committed to the Foxes, where the England international has played his football since May 2012.

The 31-year-old told Sky Sports News: "Who have I been linked with today? Chelsea, they've been linked with everybody haven't they?

"You just have to take things like this with a pinch of salt, it's just rumours. Usually, it all gets started by someone throwing a few quid on it at the bookies.

"I'm a Leicester player and I'm just concentrating on Leicester until the club tell me otherwise and we will be looking to progress to the next round of the cup."

Vardy has contributed 10 goals and one assist in 23 Premier League appearances this season.
