Claudio Ranieri plays down Jamie Vardy-Sergio Aguero comparison

Vardy’s exploits in front of goal – he has 18 Premier League goals - have been pivotal to Leicester’s surprise title challenge this season.

Saturday’s top-of-the-table clash between Leicester and Manchester City will see Jamie Vardy and Sergio Aguero go head-to-head but Foxes boss Claudio Ranieri thinks comparisons between the two strikers are unfair.

Vardy’s exploits in front of goal this season – he has 18 Premier League goals - have been pivotal to Leicester’s surprise title challenge and the 29-year-old is in talks about a new improved contract to keep him at the King Power Stadium until 2019. His existing deal expires in 2018.
