In a season of remarkable stories at the King Power Stadium, Jamie Vardy’s meteoric rise has been one of the big ones.

Having fired 22 goals on the way to Leicester City winning the Premier League, the Foxes striker has seen his name plastered across the front and back pages. He’s even had a body double pretending to be him.

But despite his form, England call-ups and talk of Hollywood films, there has one been one question that many have been asking.

Why does he wear a blue bandage over his wrist?

Well, we can reveal why.

The England striker first injured himself three years ago in the season before City secured the Championship title.

On a day out in Blackpool, Vardy was in one of the town’s many arcades and decided to have a go on one of the punching machines.

In Vardy’s usual full-blooded style, he followed through hitting the backboard and broke a bone in his right hand.

A couple of years on, in September’s remarkable clash against Aston Villa where City fought back from 2-0 down to win 3-2, Vardy then broke two bones in his wrist.

The 29-year-old striker strapped up his wrist and carried on, playing a pivotal role in the comeback scoring the second goal as the Foxes scored three in 20 minutes to stun Villa.

He still wears the cast now in a bid to protect his wrist and has to tape it in the same colour as the kit he’s playing in.
