Ranieri: 'Vardy can be England warrior'

Claudio Ranieri has said that Jamie Vardy can be a "warrior" for England.

Vardy made his England debut in June and could be included in the squad for their Euro 2016 qualifiers against Switzerland and San Marino next month.

"Jamie is positive, he is a warrior, every ball could be the best ball," Ranieri told reporters. "He never gives up and I love this kind of player.

"Anything can happen, Jamie attacks and breaks the line all the time and it's very good for us.

"When some international coaches call my players up it means we're doing a good job."

Vardy has scored 26 goals in 98 appearances for the Foxes.
