Victor Wanyama has hinted at where he is likely to play next as he weighs his options from a number of several offers on his table.
Former Harambee Stars captain appears not to be keen to return to England despite enjoying his best years in the country.
Wanyama played for over six years in England, starting with Southampton, when he became the first Kenyan to feature in the English Premier League, joining in 2013 from Scottish giants Celtic.
That was under coach Mauricio Pochettino, who would lure him to Tottenham Hotspur in 2016, a club he played for until March 2020, when he left for MLS side CF Montreal.
Wanyama ended his near-five-year stay in Montreal last November at the expiry of his contract and at 33, he still has the fire in his belly to continue.
The midfielder admits he has received several offers and is leaning towards a new challenge which means a move back to England is off the table.
“At the moment, I am just waiting to see what will happen. I am looking at all the offers that are on my table and then I will decide what is best for me. I have received several offers from Europe, Asia and Australia, but at the moment there hasn’t been anything decided yet,” Wanyama told Telecomasia.net.

South African legend Benni McCarthy has reportedly decided on the men who will join his technical bench when he takes over as Harambee Stars coach.
“But yes, I will still be playing football and I am actively looking at everything on offer. Remaining in England might be one of the options, but I am more inclined towards experiencing a new environment as I have played in England for a while.”
With an offer from Asia among them, Wanyama could be set to join a host of stars who have opted for money-spinning deals in the Gulf in recent years as he has already experienced Europe and the MLS.
