Wanyama joined Montréal in March 2020 from Tottenham Hotspur, where he spent four years, made 117 appearances, and scored five goals.
Meanwhile, Odhiambo’s return to the national team comes after his earlier exclusion from McCarthy’s squad for Kenya’s 2026 FIFA World Cup Group F qualifiers against Gambia and Gabon. The omission raised concerns among fans, especially since the squad was largely composed of locally-based players.
Veteran midfielder Victor Wanyama will not feature for Kenya’s Harambee Stars in their upcoming international friendly matches against Chad next month.
Harambee Stars head coach Benni McCarthy had included the former Tottenham Hotspur star in his 25-man squad to face Les Sao on June 7 and 10 in Morocco. The inclusion surprised many, as Wanyama,33, had officially retired from international football on September 27, 2021.
