Harambee Stars coach Sebastien Migne Meets Wanyama in London

Harambee Stars coach Sebastien Migne traveled to London to meet national team captain and Tottenham Hotspurs midfielder Victor Wanyama ahead of crucial AFCON qualifiers matches against Ethiopia next month.

Even though the agenda of the meeting was not disclosed, it is aimed to clear the air between the two after Wanyama refused to travel to Nairobi to face Ghana early this month. Wanyama, who was recovering from an injury opted to stay in London and build his fitness rather than travel.

Coach Migne, appeared to have disagreed with the decision, saying that the midfielder ought to have traveled to Nairobi to be assessed by national team doctors.
