Allan Wanga: I just pray my agent works out an agreeable deal

PanARMENIAN.Net - Harambee Stars striker Allan Wanga could become the first Kenyan to play in Europe's premier club competition, the Champions League, if his employer and suitor agree to terms.



Armenian perennial champions Pyunik FC had an initial offer for Wanga rejected by his Angolan club Petro Atletico. "Pyunik have been tracking me for a while now but my club has asked for more than they had offered and negotiations are going on," Wanga said.



According to Wanga, Atletico have put a price tag of 350,000 euros (Sh37.8 million) on him against Pyunik's offer of 250,000 euros (Sh27m). The 22-year-old moved to Petro Atletico from Tusker in 2008 in a $60,000 (Sh4.68m) deal. He has scored four goals in eight matches this season for the reigning Angola champions.



"Petro still want me and will only release me if the price is right. It is a dream for me to play in Europe and I just pray my agent works out an agreeable deal," Wanga said. Pyunik is one of the most popular football teams in Armenia.



Founded in 1992, the Yerevan-based club has won a record 11 Armenian Premier League titles. The club currently has one foreign player, Zambian midfielder Emmanuel Mbola.



Wanga, the 2007 KPL top goal scorer, is currently in camp with Harambee Stars who are preparing to host Mozambique in Nairobi for their must-win World Cup/Africa Cup of Nations qualifying tie on June 20, Daily Nation reported.
