Claudio Ranieri rules out January sale of Jamie Vardy

Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri insists that he will not be selling any of his star players in the summer after his side's impressive start to the campaign.

Claudio Ranieri has categorically stated that Leicester City's star players will remain put when the transfer window reopens in the New Year.

The Foxes have made a fine start to the Premier League campaign by losing just one of their opening nine fixtures.

Key to this positive early-season form have been the likes of Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez hitting the ground running, which has inevitably seen the two players - along with winger Jeffrey Schlupp - linked with moves away.

Speaking to reporters at his weekly press conference, Ranieri ruled out any sale and claimed that England international Vardy is more than happy at the King Power Stadium.

"It's too early to talk about this," he said. "I hope Vardy can improve. If he can continue it'll be fantastic. We don't sell him. He's very happy here. Nobody goes in January. Not him, not Riyad, not Schlupp."

Vardy has scored nine goals in 12 games for Leicester so far this term.
