I predict Wanyama to join one of the Big 5 in the next couple of years, don't know why Man Utd didn't bid for him, he'd have been perfect for us, and I'm sure we'd have outbid Southampton.
Oliech naye?
"Wanyama attended Kamukunji High School, which fields a successful football team.
Upon leaving High School he also played with JMJ Academy for three years during which time he also joined Kenyan Premier League clubs Nairobi City Stars and AFC Leopards.[3] In
2007 he joined Allsvenskan club Helsingborg but after the departure of his brother McDonald Mariga to Serie A side Parma in 2008, Wanyama returned to Kenya."
If Wanyama was born in 1991 then that means he was only 16 yrs old when he signed for Helsingborg which also means he was probably 14 yrs old when he played for AFC Leopards.....IMO huyu jamaa ako 26 ama 27 yrs old. Anyway on the pitch he's a very good player, really hope he'll continue with his good performance and probably get signed up by one of the big teams.
