Wanyama refused to rule out move away from Celtic

Celtic midfielder Victor Wanyama is aware of the interest from the European clubs, but admits he is fully concentrated on fulfilling his duties both at his club and national team.

Despite his relatively young age, Wanyama has been given a captain’s armband in Kenya’s World Cup qualifier against Nigeria. This is hardly surprising, taking into account the 21-year-old’s consistency and leadership qualities. At the moment he remains with his national side as they are preparing for the game against Malawi later this week.

Wanyama refused to rule out move away from Celtic, in the wake of interest from Premier League clubs. He said: “I still have contract with Celtic and I am their player, if anything comes up and it is good for me and the club, from there I will move on.”

Asked if he had talks with Premier League clubs over a possible move, he replied: “At the moment there are some things, some talks going on. But I am concentrating with the national side and I have left that with my agent and I have not contacted him. There are talks going on, but as I said I am on international duty and I will now what is going on when I go back to the club.”
