Ronald Koeman on Wanyama: “All I can say is that for Victor, the future is in Southampton. You have to respect contracts and nobody is for sale.”

Those are actually powerful words from a manager directed at the hullabaloo that has surrounded the “imminent” departure of Victor Wanyama from Saints to Tottenham.

The truth of the matter as Soka25east.com has found out the issue is taking a toll on the player as pressure piles up in three scenarios that have we explain as follows;

PAY BACK TIME:

For Starters we have to all remember Mauricio Porchetino gave Wanyama the big breakthrough signing him for £12.5 Million to make his dream of being the first East African to play in the Barclays Premier League to become a reality.

At this moment Wanyama might harbor feelings to pay back his former coach by joining him at Spurs to help strengthen his forte in midfield a case you cannot rule out but again we have to remember that it is Southampton that gave the biggest opportunity being the first EPL club to bring him onboard so that’s the catch 22 situation Wanyama finds himself intertwined in.

AGENT ROB MOORE:

Lets remember football is business and for this fact Wanyama’s agent Rob Moore has foreseen some brisk business  and the fact that he can make some good money just two years down the line makes him salivate hoping to make a quick kill before the transfer window is shut.

Agents can be good or bad advisors it depends on how you take them but again it’s a move Moore can’t resist as he piles pressure on his client to see the “green grass on the other side “.

FOOTBALL LIFE IS SHORT MAKE HAY WHILE SUN SHINES:

There is the general feeling by most African footballers  life in football is unpredictable and if an opportunity comes up grab it as you don’t know when the next will come.

Victor Wanyama definitely loves Southampton  fans but again he knows that Porchetino will guarantee him play time and above all his bank balance and pecking order will change with a move and you can’t deny him such valid dreams as his career progresses

CONCLUSION:

Victor Wanyama has his work cut out and he remains in a tight spot to decide his future with only few days to go.

In life the grass that looks green on the other side might be basically growing on sewage but again anything can happen.

Though the pressure is massive it needs an informed decision that will not lead to any regrets sometimes patience pays and maybe it’s at Southampton that Wanyama will get a great and bigger deal if he stays for another season before suitors come calling that’s the parting shot.
