The Harambee Stars captain has thanked Spurs’ family for the chance they gave him to play for the North London club
Victor Wanyama has thanked Tottenham Hotspur for the great memories after he left the club to sign for Montreal Impact.
The Kenyan captain ended his seven-year stay at North London after joining the Canadian club on a free transfer as a Designated Player on a three-year deal, and will link up with the Major League Soccer (MLS) outfit once his medical is completed and international clearance is processed.
