Nairobi City Stars midfielder Peter Pinchez Opiyo has been playing top-level football for over a decade and has opened up on the secret to longevity.

The veteran midfielder made his debut in the Premier League back in 2008 and had stints in Finland, Qatar and in Turkmenistan before making a return to Kenya.

Speaking to Mozzart Sport, Opiyo revealed some of the incites that made him stay at the top of his game for over a decade. 

“It is discipline. For sportsmen, this is very important. The other thing is believing and being close to God. For me these two have been my pillars.” Explained Opiyo.

The former Gor Mahia midfielder has enjoyed an impressive stint at City Stars as he was the top scorer last season after the club had earned promotion back to Premier League.

Opiyo has however endured limited game time this season as he has been nursing a niggly knee injury sustained towards the end of the last campaign. In the loss to KCB last time out, the experienced midfielder missed the matchday squad after suffering another injury setback.
