Last week, a British publication slammed the usage of Wanyama's image alongside Tottenham teammates, England internationals Harry Kane and Dele Ali, Belgium defender Toby Alderweireld to promote a betting firm in Kenya, a country grappling with a gambling problem.

The firm in question, Russian bookmaker 1XBet, are Tottenham's official betting partners in Africa and have plastered billboards featuring the four Spurs stars across the country as they seek to grab a share of the lucrative and growing sports gaming industry in the East African nation.

"Given the levels of gambling addiction in Britain and Kenya, it's time to make rules about gambling adverts and sponsorships much tighter. Fans are bombarded with gambling ads and it's not right," British Labor deputy leader Tom Watson was quoted as saying in reaction to the English Football Association rules that support the usage of the league's stars in gambling advertising as long as the company has signed a commercial deal with the club involved.
