Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri has warned in-form striker Jamie Vardy that he would be wise to stay at the King Power Stadium beyond January.
The 28-year-old has been one of the success stories in a season which has seen him score 12 goals to lead the race for the Premier League's golden boot - scoring in nine straight games.
Consequently, the England international's form is said to have alerted England's elite as Manchester United reportedly weigh up a £15m bid this winter.
Asked by Sky Sports News if Leicester is the best place for Vardy, the Italian said: "Of course, he's intelligent, he knows very well that now, at Leicester, there's a very good group, a positive group who play together.
"That's good for him and the other players to show they have quality in this team. Maybe next season they could choose the best solution - but then you have to see also where Leicester is at the end of the season."
The Foxes, who sit third in the table, one point behind co-leaders Manchester City and Arsenal, face Newcastle United away on Saturday.
