Leicester striker Jamie Vardy has been talking to Tottenham's players about Call of Duty rather than the Premier League title race while on international duty with England.

Just five points separate the two sides ahead of the run-in and the Foxes are now regarded as the favourites to lift the trophy ahead of their north London rivals.

Vardy, who has been pivotal to Leicester's rise to the top of the table, has grown used to battling Mauricio Pochettino's side this season but counts several Spurs players as teammates at international level.

Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Eric Dier, Danny Rose and Kyle Walker are all part of Roy Hodgson's squad for friendlies against Germany and the Netherlands but Vardy has rejected the chance to pick his countryman's brains about the title race.

"We have been talking about Call of Duty," said the 29-year-old.

"We have not all played on it together yet - but I got informed that one of the lads just camps in a corner and waits for someone to run past him so he can get him - so I'm looking forward to playing them," he joked.

Vardy did not reveal the mystery 'camper's' identity but will be aiming to shoot down his opponent's title hopes and video game tactics even if club rivalries have been put aside for the Three Lions.

With Wayne Rooney sidelined, Vardy is vying to secure a starting berth at the forefront of England's attack along with Kane, Danny Welbeck and Daniel Sturridge.
