Mikel Jouns Stoke City by ayinde2020: 6:00pm On Aug 17, 2020 |
Former Super Eagles midfielder John Obi Mikel has
joined Championship side Stoke City on a one-year
deal promising to help the club gain promotion back
to the Premier League.
Mikel, who won a host of domestic and European
honours during a glittering 11-year stay at Chelsea,
returns to English football after a spell in the Turkish
Super Lig with Trabzonspor.
Speaking on the acquisition, Manager Michael O’Neill
said: “”We’re delighted to bring John to the Club. His
playing career speaks for itself and underlines his
calibre as a player.”

“We spent four hours talking and he made it clear he
wants to get back into the Premier League and finish
his career there and hopefully he can do that with
Stoke City.”
Mikel made more than 370 appearances for Chelsea,
helping them to land the Premier League title twice,
as well as three FA Cups, the Champions League and
Europa League.
After a spell in China, he played for Middlesbrough
after joining them on a short-term deal in January
2019, making 19 appearances. He won 91 caps
before retiring from international football following
last year’s African Cup of Nations.
Mikel becomes the fourth summer signing for the
Potters as stated on the club’s website. |
