#4 Jamie Vardy – Fleetwood Town to Leicester City (£1 million), 2012
Jamie Vardy’s rise to stardom has been nothing short of a modern fairy tale. The transfer to Leicester City amounting to 1 million pound was actually a non-League transfer record. With the help of his 16 goals, Leicester City got promoted into the Premier League.
In his second season in the Premier League with the club, Vardy has been absolutely magnificent for Leicester City with his pace, work rate and finishing and has been at the crux of the team that has been having a dream season in the Premier League. Vardy himself has notched up until now 22 goals for the season and is one of the leading contenders for this season’s Player of the Year.
