Where do these Chinese people get their money from? Is there league lucrative that they pay players exorbitant amounts.

I think its because there are a lot of Chinese people.... When you have over a billion people in a country, getting fans to attend and buy stuff like jerseys ain't hard at all

$140k is 70mil in naira. You think the ibo man doesn't know what he's doing? Just $140

frenchwine:
So Mikel went for just 140k? ? Are you fucking kidding me??

Adiwana:

Honestly,you know little about Football.How many seasons did he play for Chelsea&despite many coaches&players coming around,he has always maintained His starting place in the team.Check how many days cup finals he played&not forgetting he played both European finals.Last season he was called the Zidane of Chelsea.He only lost his place cos of Olympics.He didn't score goals,but he was one of the heartbeats of the team.Give credit where it's due

bros, leave that thing. He went to the Olympics because he already lost his place at Chelsea. Not the other way around

Who mikel epp..

it's funny how you that knows everything about football doesn't not know the meaning of starting place. Mikel doesn't have a starting place at Chelsea. It seems you don't understand how these things work. Mikel is a back up option incase there are injuries or suspensions to the first team players and he's contented with that too, that's why the club never increase his wages they just extend his contract to have him as a back up option and keep him on the bench. Even iheanacho who hasn't spent up to two seasons in England earns more than him. Players have come and gone from Chelsea relegating Mikel to the bench including the likes of Juliano Belleti

frenchwine:
So Mikel went for just 140k? ? Are you fucking kidding me??

Lol. People don't earn £40k in a lifetime let alone £140k.

Chinese government wet dey print money anyhow..not surprised.. Those guys wan develop their league by all means..

Toofan007:
bros, leave that thing. He went to the Olympics because he already lost his place at Chelsea. Not the other way around

Don't mind the clown, one of them even said Mikel kept his starting place at Chelsea. Starting place my foot.

Afam4eva:

actually some of all these chinese clubs are part-owned by the chinese government, and the rest mostly by huge multi-billion multinational companies, unlike in europe where most clubs are owned by a person/people; hence money isn't really an issue. Soccer is now a political something there, the Chinese government are worried that they can send a rocket to space, but can't even beat Thailand in a football match. They want to make their league attractive enough, one of the ways to do that is by importing foreign talent, and the only way a nice enough footballer will swap europe for asia is if u offer him exhorbitant salaries he can't refuse, that is what they are doing. But of course contingencies have been put into place to allow for local talent, soccer schools are been built all over the country, and every club is allowed only 3 foreign players + 1 other player from another asian country max, this allows develpoment of local players.

Bros, I noh too know calculation oo buh na over 100milla per week be dat oo

guy ur calculation nor correct
na 54 millon naira every week
wich i think is a huge sum
only one week of dat moni fit make beggar bcom giver

oshati:
Mikel ought to be ashame...This is a surprise to me,thought u would remain in Europe and prove people wrong and play ur actual game. But you av never been ambitious or the type to want to improve as a footballer,I don't hate you but you were once second to Lionel Messi. Even the Chinese are offering to pay you 140k per week. That's the Lowest I have heard of, of all the players who moved from Europe to the Far East..ur critics would be laughing @ the wage dey re offering u....if it's even 300k it's ok...Mikel 4rm day 1, u don't av good advisers and good agent...no1 talk to you....wishing u well in diz ur new journey....

Mikel has nothing to prove, he spent more than ten years in Chelsea and the highest his wages reached was 75k, cos he spent the better of those ten years on the bench. Iheanacho currently earns more than that at City with his first contract, he hasn't even spent up to two years.

Ximenez:
Listen to yourself, he played with the best indeed, all those you mentioned Mikel was always playing second fiddle to them, Mikel is contented just sitting on the bench he only served as a back up to all those you mentioned, tell me one season when Mikel was first choice at Chelsea, Mikel is immobile, always afraid to take risk. If you pass a ball to Mikel be ready to receive it back cos he's always afraid to take risk, experiment or make mistakes. He's not even useful in parking the bus cos he's very slow and can't orchestrate a counter attack. Why do you think Mikel hasn't moved on since all these days? It's because he's OK as long as he's collecting his 75k a week that has never been increased. Normally good players always find another club if they are not guaranteed first team football. Now he's behind Loftus cheek, Faberegas, Kante, Matic and Chalobah so he's not being sold cos of Matic.

guy u know absolutely nothing bout football

After Andre Villa Boas was sacked in 2012, Mikel played more than 80% games for chelsea. He played against Benfica in the quater final, also he played both legs in the semi final against Barcelona. Then, why did you say Miked played because of suspension in the final?. My brother, Mikel is an unsung hero. Tell me,how many players that spend 11 years in a club? How many players that participate in all Fifa tournaments? How many African players that win accolades than Mikel? How many players that win more trophies for their countries than Mikel? This Mikel lost his place at Chelsea because of you and me and he suceedingly won the bronze medal for us. Can we talk about bringing sliver medal in 2005, afcon trophy 2013 and olympic 2016. As Mikel said 'I can not subsitute my olympic medal for anything. Finally, tell me one Nigerian that won/ win more trophy than mikel for both the country and club. Truly, the guy is an unsung hero

Ximenez:
Yea, and you know so much about football, even more than the past and present Chelsea coaches and to set the record right, I'm a Chelsea fan and i have been for a while now. Please remind me of one unique trait Mikel has as a midfielder, and tell me why Chelsea keep on buying midfielders even when Mikel was available, and tell me why China is only offering him 140k per week if they don't know his worth. Like i said Mikel played the final because of suspensions to Ramires and Meireles.

More than 70million naira weekly...chai
Money Money Money

We will miss u at d bridge bro

and you think Mikel played in the champions League final because he is first choice? No my brother. The favorites were suspended for the match. Ramires and Meireles. I still remember Ramires goal against Barcelona (Mikel would have passed that Lampard's through pass backward) I also remember Meireles goal against Benfica, that is cracker of a shot (Mikel doesn't have that technique, everybody knows that)

Mopolchi:
Mikel has moved to a country where we won't watch him play again. What is my own sef? When we were watching him, he was not playing but sitting on the bench.

The CSL is on Startimes and will soon be the most watched league in Africa and even the world in a few years with the way younger stars and great coaches are moving there.

Afam4eva:

Over 1.5 billion human beings in one country o. And football is the only popular sport where they're still yet to make an impact. The president is encouraging this.

guy u know absolutely nothing bout football

Let's start from here, cos it's still recent, that premier league Chelsea won in 2014/2015 was Mikel in the first eleven? No it was Faberegas and Matic. Mikel was a squad player when Chelsea won majority of those trophies. Now you are going to do me a favor. Please tell me one good Chelsea season when Mikel made the first eleven and tell me the first eleven then.

Mopolchi:
Happy New Year!

guy when you compare don't include China and Russia. Most clubs in Europe you earn what you are worth, why do you think Sanchez and ozil are yet to sign a new contract, both are demanding for increase, cos they think they deserve it, Azpilicueta's contract was recently extended and his wages was increased too. That you are using the amount Oscar earns in China to compare shows the kind of person you are. When Oscar was at Chelsea was he earning more than those you mentioned?

There's nothing contradictory here, When Oscar was at Chelsea he wasn't earning up to those players you mentioned.

Thank you jare. Mikel played in the champion league, europa, the F A cup finals 2007 against man u, 2009 against Everton, 2012 against liverpool and some people are calling him a benchwarmer

even if you played 0 game you'll still get your medal as long as you are in the squad. But does that make you a good player? No the point I'm trying to make here is simple. Good players don't sit on the bench and if a coach decides to put a good player on the bench the player will leave and go play first team football elsewhere, even if it's on loan, some players won't even come to your club if you can't guarantee them a start. It's obvious from the nicknames Mikel has accrued over the years from Snail, to slowbi and bench warmer. I'm too lazy right now, of not i would have googled the number of times Mikel started a match for Chelsea (not coming of the bench) the number of times he was on the bench and the number of times he didn't even make the match day squad.

Chinese league insidiously killing world football with this their Fake Money.


Check out how football will be in the next 5-7 yrs. The likes of messi, Ronaldo, Hazard n Neymar will be playing in a league where the world will not be watching them.

Why do you think he will be collecting 140k in China at 29? as a player just leaving one of the biggest club in Europe

mrdashing10:
$140k is 70mil in naira. You think the ibo man doesn't know what he's doing? Just $140

Forget that tin, others are going to China for double and triple that amount.
He could have gotten a similar deal in other European leagues instead of going to the mediocre Chinese league for same.
