Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard reveals why Harambee Star’s captain Victor Wanyama is underrated in English Premier League

Victor Wanyama is arguably the most successful player in the history of Kenyan football; the 25 year old has been making mouths wag ever since he moved to English Premier League from Scottish premiership side- Celtic F.C.

Victor Wanyama has maintained a regular start at Tottenham Hotspur due to his impressive form; the defensive midfielder has been said to be one of the pillars behind the club’s strong defense.

Even so, Wanyama’s club lost to Liverpool last Saturday at Anfield on Saturday; Tottenham were hammered 2-0 by the Reds.

In a live interview with BT Sport on Saturday, Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard said Wanyama was underrated.

Gerrard has hailed the Kenyan national team captain and claimed that people don’t realize how strong he is until they face him in the pitch.

“People don’t realize how strong he really is until they play him,” he said live on BT Sport on Saturday.

Gerrard further said that it is only after the game is over that Wanyama’s input is well appreciated.
