Allan Wanga: I believe I did my best for Kenya and worked even harder to go to the Afcon

Kakamega Homeboyz striker Allan Wanga has disputed Sebastien Migne's claims that he did not impress during the Harambee Stars training camp.

Wanga was dropped as Masoud Juma, Christopher Mbamba, Michael Olunga and John Avire were picked for the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) assignment. Migne defended his decision of dropping the Kenyan Premier League top scorer but Wanga has offered a different view on the matter.

"I have received overwhelming phone calls and messages from friends, family and fans from all over. It is so humbling and encouraging at the same time.

"It is every player's dream to represent their national team at whatever level and I believe I did my best and worked even harder to try and impress the coach but he had his reasons," Wanga wrote in a statement on his Facebook page.
