Former Harambee Stars captain Victor Wanyama has acknowledged his brother, FKF Vice President McDonald Mariga, as the superior player, citing Mariga's UEFA Champions League triumph with Inter Milan in 2010. Wanyama, who came close to winning the prestigious trophy with Tottenham Hotspur in 2019, conceded that Mariga's achievement gives him the edge.

Mariga made history as the first Kenyan to play and win the UEFA Champions League, featuring in Inter Milan's 2-0 win over Bayern Munich in the 2010 final. Wanyama, on the other hand, was part of the Tottenham Hotspur team that lost to Liverpool in the 2019 Champions League final.

The Wanyama brothers have made significant contributions to Kenyan football, with McDonald Mariga paving the way for Victor's success in Europe. Mariga's achievements include winning the Serie A, Coppa Italia, and UEFA Champions League with Inter Milan, while Victor Wanyama has played for top clubs like Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur.
