Clubless Victor Wanyama Rejects Return To England, Reveals Why He’s Not Retiring Soon
Former Harambee Stars captain Victor Wanyama has stated he is yet to retire and is looking for offers on the table before deciding what his next career step will be.
Wanyama has not joined any club since he left Major League Soccer (MLS) CF Montreal of Canada in December 2024. Although he has been linked with the Championship side, Queens Park Rangers (QPR), he has expressly said he does not wish to return to England to play.
“I will still be playing football and actively looking at everything on offer. Staying in England is an option, but I am more inclined to experience a new environment, as I’ve played in England for a while,” Wanyama told a local publication.
Wanyama spent his time in the Premier League with Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur, and he has explained why his time in North London remains very memorable.
“Yeah, I would say that was a great time in North London. I joined a big team that always pushed for Champions League qualification, and it was a huge challenge. I played some of my best football there.
“We had such a good team, and to this day, it’s unbelievable that we didn’t win the Premier League or any trophies with that group. The talent and chemistry were unmatched,” he stated.
Partnership
In a recent interview, he recalled his time at Spurs and specifically talked about his partnership with Mousa Dembélé.
“Me and Mousa, we enjoyed what we were doing; we complemented each other very well. You miss those moments. We had a good group, and we always wanted to improve each game.
“Every weekend when we went out, we wanted to prove to ourselves that we could stay at the top; that’s how it should be, competing every weekend and making sure the club is at the top. It was fun. The most important thing that we had was fun, you know, going out there and having fun, and then the rest would just follow.
“Unfortunately, there was one thing that we would love to do for the club, to win a trophy, but we didn’t do it with our group. You know what? I believe this group will do something special one day,” he said.
