Jamie Vardy's message following his absence from Leicester clash

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy did not travel to London for Saturday's Premier League clash with West Ham United as her wife Rebekah gave birth to their third child together. The 32-year-old was expected to be rested for the match anyway, but was not named among the substitutes when the teams were announced. Manager Brendan Rodgers revealed in his pre-match interview ahead of the game that Vardy had stayed behind after Rebekah gave birth on Saturday morning. Vardy took to Twitter to send a message following the news.

Over the moon to let you know our beautiful little girl has arrived 💕 Becky and baby are both doing well and we are all totally in love with the newest member of our team.
