Ex-Lille coach Girard backing Leicester and Vardy for glory

Published on: 29 February 2016

Former Lille coach Rene Girard is backing Leicester City to win the title.

Girard is also a big fan of Foxes striker Jamie Vardy.

He told So Foot: "I hope they go all the way! Today, money is a very important factor, big cars and monster budgets, this is what makes the difference.

"When you see Leicester play, there's this freshness. This is a team that does not drop away, which is their strength.

"They have a player, his name ... Vardy, who looks a bit like Olivier Giroud in the season he had with Montpellier, extraordinary.

"He will definitely finish top scorer."
