The conspicuous absence of Victor Wanyama’s father at Wanda
Metropolitano Stadium in the Spanish capital has ignited a hot debate in Kenya
as part of the family of Tottenham midfielder arrived in Madrid to watch the
UEFA Champions League final.
Wanyama’s mother and his big brother McDonald Mariga who won
the biggest tittle in European club with Inter Milan in 2010 were part of the
family members present.
Relative to note both football stars, Wanyama and Mariga
were mentored into the game by his father Noah Wanyama who once played for the
AFC Leopards in the 1980.
However he never made it in football.
His looks of a poor man made him mistreated by security
personal when he had gone to watch his son play in a friendly game between
Kenya and Dr Congo.
Others have opined that the move that left Wanyama’s father
out of the time that made it to Spain may later come as a curse to the sterling
footballer.
