AFCON qualifier: Wanyama returns to Kenya squad after missing Ghana game

Kenya's head coach Sebastien Migne has called up Tottenham midfielder Victor Wanyama for their two 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Ethiopia in October.

Earlier this month, Kenya captain Wanyama was included in the Harambee Stars squad for the qualifier against Ghana but did not travel for the match which Kenya went on to win 1-0.

Wanyama only recently returned to full training with Tottenham and has had a few minutes of competitive action after recovering from a knee injury.

"I hope Wanyama will make it for the two games this time," Kenya coach Migne said in Nairobi on Saturday.

The Harambee Stars will first travel to Bahir Dar to face Ethiopia on 10 October, before hosting the return match on 14 October in Nairobi.

Kenya are second in Group F behind Ghana, with all four teams on three points each.
