Jamie Vardy's scoring exploits will be marked in a unique way by Leicester City tonight with the striker's own flavour of crisps.

The Foxes will hand out packets of 'Vardy Salted' crisps to home supporters as they come through the turnstiles ahead of the Premier League match against Chelsea at the King Power Stadium.

Walkers Crisps - the club's legacy partner - has produced 32,000 packets of the limited edition flavour as a one-off gesture to honour the England international.

A spokesman for Walkers said: "We are excited to announce that we have created limited edition packs of 'Vardy Salted' crisps to celebrate Jamie Vardy's record breaking goals in 11 straight games and following incredible social media public demand.
