Ex-Leicester City star Jamie Vardy caught up in Burnley managerial change after 14 games

Former Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy is set to play under a new manager at Burnley following the departure of Nicky Hayen. The Clarets currently sit 22nd in the Championship table after suffering a 4-1 defeat against Lincoln City on Saturday. Hayen, who replaced Scott Parker in July after winning the Belgian Pro League with Club Brugge, managed just one league victory and six defeats during his tenure.

Vardy joined Burnley five matches into the campaign, making two starts and scoring once in a 2-1 defeat to Wolves before missing the squad entirely against Lincoln. Former Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard is among the early contenders to succeed Hayen at Turf Moor, alongside Carlos Corberan and Dave Challinor.
