Allan Wanga Announces Retirement from Football After 14 years

Kenyan international footballer Allan Wanga has announced retirement from professional football.

In a statement, Wanga doing something he loved for 14 years has been a blessing he has lived it from the time he first kicked the ball.

He mentioned that his love for football has taken him to places he never imagined he would go to.

“Fourteen years doing something that brings you joy, satisfaction and pride is a blessing. I have lived this blessing since I first kicked a football at a tender age and stepped into the stadium professionally. My love for football has taken me places I had never imagined I would go, both for club and national duty,” said Wanga.

“I have witnessed wins and losses, lifted trophies, endured the pain of being so close yet so far to important wins, through it all, I have been lifted by the love and support of an incredible army of supporters. Without you, my fans, teammates, technical benches across the clubs that I have played for, my family, I wouldn’t have had the motivation to keep going,” he added.

Allan Wanga thanked his fans and all who played a part in his growth and career saying that he reached those heights because of them.

He also promised to see them outside of the field.

“Please accept my sincerest thanks for keeping me grounded, lifted me up when I needed that boost and kept me in check when I needed to get my game better. As I exit the professional football stage, I take this opportunity to give you all my gratitude. I was because you were there for me. Thank you and God bless. See you outside the field,” said Wanga.
