World star comes to Fenerbahçe for free

Approximately 1 year ago he left Chelsea and was seated at the table with the manager of the Nigerian midfielder who was transferred to Chinese club TJ Teda . It was stated that Mikel was preparing to terminate his contract with TJ Teda. In this case, the star player will be transferred without the bonus fee. An agreement is reached on the salary of a 30-year-old soccer player, and a transfer will occur if the quota problem is resolved. John Obi Mikel, who was transferred from Norway's FK Lyn to Chelsea in 2006, spent most of his career in the Premier League. The star player in China, who catches up with the flow and keeps the way of the Far East, can play numbers 6 and 8. Mikel, TJ Teda form 13 matches in China, while 1 goal and 1 assist performance showed.

According to the website Fenerbahce is trying to acquire the service of the Nigerian International after the club has parted way with Ozan Tufan.
Aykut Kocaman is expected to use Obi Mikel as an alternative to Mehmet Topal and Josef de Souza in the midfield. But it does not say it's a done deal......

Boy Wonder please come to Arsenal and help show this players how to win.Just do this for some of us your true fans.
I don't understand why coaches like Klopp and Wenger not fighting over such a player when they don't have a player of his quality.
I mean Liverpool has no DM same with beloved yet they will allow a Turkey club to get a world class player for free?

Someone suggested Mikel to Liverpool on their fans forum and he was laughed off. I wonder who is laughing now?

was about to say that

all the players who LEAVE China, we never get the full story of why they left.

The money sweet, so it must be something else

I think the more important thing to know is why some of them moved to China in their prime. The salary Mikel was getting in Tiajin is achievable elsewhere.

I think it’s the Chinese clubs shedding foreign players because of a new luxury tax, but not sure...

[Tbite]

And I might be in Tiajin after the World Cup, could have linked up with bobo.

Ah well.

Money is not everything. In fact professional satisfaction is a lot more important.

Even Ighalo is begging to come back to the epl...he has been touting himself like an ayilara ashawo standing in front of her face me i face you room!

Interesting that Ujah and Ideye moved, and that Ighalo and Mikel are linked with moves away from China. However, the likes of Bakambu and Mascherano just moved to China. They still seem to be luring players there with big money.

While you may not be referring directly to Mikel's case

It should be stated that Tiajin is one of the world's best cities.

Depending on the list/year or who you ask, Tiajin is sometimes even considered the best city in China!

'Quality of life' isnt only about the material things of life.
When you have kids you'll understand better.
Priorities change.
Schools, culture, value systems, social networks and interaction....they are all part of 'quality of life' experienced both directly and through your children.
