Mikel began his career with local club Plateau United, before joining Norwegian club Lyn at the age of 17 in 2004. In 2006, he made a controversial transfer to English club Chelsea after Manchester United claimed they had already signed him. He stayed with Chelsea for 11 years, before moving to China with Tianjin TEDA in 2017. After two years in China, he returned to England on a short-term deal with Middlesbrough, before joining Trabzonspor on a free transfer in July 2019. Mikel moved back to England in August 2020 joining Stoke City. In a 14-year international career between 2005 and 2019, he played 88 times for Nigeria, scoring six goals.source,From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. 1 Like |

KingKingKing:Odẹ ni e...meaning you are a fool. Mikel won you African nations cup controlling the midfield with inexperienced players and homebased players. African cup of nations Nigeria couldn't win for a good 20 years of trial and failure even when Okocha was still in the team......You are a fool I swear and many senseless Nigerians like u who belittle Mikels achievement in super eagles...Make una go win nations cup now make we see..Ode 7 Likes |

And what has Nigeria done for you? Only to insult your tribe all the time, that's the reward you get when you don't listen to wise advice of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Tell me how many who had worked for Nigeria without going back with shame. |

Always annoying when people who have not achieved any success in life talk ill of someone who has achieved almost everything in his chosen career and who is rich enough to sustain his family till death if he choses not to work again. A player that won Champions league, African cup of nations and many titles in top flight football is being tagged the worst midfielder that ever played for the National team. When you can show the world what you have done with your life, you have the right to bash Mikel. Until then, please respect the most decorated Nigerian player in recent time. KingKingKing: 1 Like |

robosky02: I understand his side of the story but don't believe him totally. By 2016 Mikel was already turning to a pensioner at Chelsea and needed the Olympics to boost his profile in the market in order for him to make a bigger move when compared to his pensioner qualities. During his most strongest time as a player during morinho tenure in 2008 Olympics the young man choose Chelsea instead of playing for Nigeria at the Olympics because he was almost seeing every match as at then. The summary of the whole story is that Mikel was no longer a force to reckon with by 2016 at Chelsea football club and that escuse to me is a lame one 2 Likes |

Mikel Obi had missed the chance of his life 8 years earlier by refusing Samson Siasia's invitation to the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Himself and Enyeama would have made a remarkable difference and the Nigerian team could have won gold instead of the silver they eventually won. |

Akakanfirstclass: If it was a racist move nko? What stops you Niggers from managing your league properly? If you want your players to represent you without issues like these develop yours. Moreover the Olympics is supposed to be a U-23 competition. I can understand why a coach wouldn't want his 30+ player to be there instead of helping his employers gain points in the premiership. 2 Likes |

ThumbzTNA: Story....he did that at his twilight of his career ...y didn't he join the team in 2008, when his career was still young and vibrant... mikel was very arrogant when his career was still hot... 2016, his career was heading out top flight |

Virus99: A fellow Nigerian was on another thread rubbishing Okocha. In fact, he said Okocha had zero accomplishments. Hahaha... Imagine Okocha who won gold at Olympics 1996, won the league with PSG in 1998 and and both African nations cup and Afro-Asian Nations cup, then some Nigerian says Okocha was useless. So you are correct; many times Nigerians disrespect their own. Mike won everything with Chelsea and he held his place many times against the best of midfielders all through his prime. Yet on this thread you find Nigerians saying he was useless. |
