Wanyama kenya skipper set to wait longer for montreal impact mls debut
Victor Wanyama, the Kenyan international midfielder and captain of the Kenya national team, is set to wait longer for his debut with Montreal Impact in Major League Soccer (MLS).
Wanyama, 30, joined Montreal Impact in February 2021 on a free transfer from Tottenham Hotspur, but has been struggling with injuries and fitness issues, which have delayed his debut.
According to reports, Wanyama is still recovering from a knee injury and is not yet match-fit, which means he will likely miss the start of the MLS season.
Montreal Impact's head coach, Wilfried Nancy, has confirmed that Wanyama is still working on his fitness and will not be available for selection in the near future.
"We're working with Victor to get him fit, but it's going to take some time," Nancy said in a recent interview. "He's not ready to play yet, but we're optimistic that he'll be with us soon."
Wanyama's debut for Montreal Impact has been highly anticipated by fans and pundits alike, given his experience and quality as a midfielder. However, it seems that he will have to wait a little longer to make his mark in MLS.
In the meantime, Montreal Impact will have to rely on other players to fill the void in midfield, and Wanyama will have to continue working on his fitness to get back to his best form.
