It was a walk down memory lane for England striker Jamie Vardy. He recently took his wife Rebekah to the factory where he did 12-hour shifts as a teenager making prosthetic limbs. After Vardy was rejected by Sheffield when he was 16, he started working at Trulife, a carbon fibre factory.


According to The Sun, Vardy and his wife toured the factory floor and even caught up with his former colleagues Mick Brown and Danny Hirst. Vardy is currently filming for his new series 'The Next Jamie Vardy', which will be aired on Saturday on Sky 1.


When Vardy was working at the factory he was playing for Stocksbridge Park Steels, for just £30-a-week before the Premier League winner's medal, the England caps and the £120,000-a-week contract.
