Premier League Star Speaks Nigerian Pidgin English



Pidgin English is a mixture of English and local Nigerian languages which enables people who do not share a common language to communicate.


The evergreen attacker who has won the Premier League golden boot twice was on target on Sunday as Leicester City defeated Sheffield United by 2-1 in a match day eleven fixture.


The Sunday fixture was almost ending in a draw with moments of the match remaining, James Maddison fed in Vardy, who scampered clear of the home defence and slotted his shot past Aaron Ramsdale.


The 33-year-old boyhood fan of Blades' rivals Sheffield Wednesday celebrated by running to the corner flag and snapping it with his boot.



Jamie Vardy scored the winning goal and broke the flag in joyous celebration but the gist about the scene will be discussed off the pitch by the players.


Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho exchanged some words with pidgin on social media about the flag Jamie Vardy broke.


However, Jamie Vardy denied the allegation by saying "No be me do am" which means he was not the one that broke the flag.


Credits must be given to Ahmed Musa, Kelechi Iheanacho and Wilfred Ndidi for teaching some Leicester City players like Jamie Vardy how to speak pidgin English.
