Former Harambee Stars Skipper, Victor Wanyama has officially retired from International Football after 14 years. Wanyama, currently attached to Major League Soccer (MLS) side Montreal Impact, is one of the most experienced players in the country and has represented Kenya since 2007 and replaced Dennis Oliech as captain back in 2013.
Through a penned letter, Wanyama expressed his sentiments; "Growing up, it has always been my dream to get the chance to represent my country. With a great deal of pride, I can say that I have been fortunate to live my dream. From making my debut against Nigeria to captaining the team at the Africa Cup of Nations finals in Egypt - these past 14 years have gone beyond what I ever thought possible. We have shared great moments together and I am proud to have been your captain and leader, "said the 30 year old.
"But all good things must come to an end eventually. I hope to return one day to help the federation off the field but until then, I will still be the Harambee Stars' biggest Supporter and I will be cheering you guys on from the sidelines. Thanks For all the support." He added.
