If he wants to play for a top side, then Turkey or Scotland should be on the top of his list.

Any of the struggling EPL sides could do with is experience to beat the drop and the possibility of getting him on a free is a good prospect. Here is guaranteed regular playing time. Fulham is a walking distance from his old stamping ground, so this will be a win/win

dont i wish Mikel played for united instead under Sir Alex, hmmm
I have always wondered what he would have been, or become had he gone to ManU, instead of Chelsea
He should've sacked his agent after ending up at Chelsea after United came calling!

Chelsea had the big bucks and Mikel wanted a part of it, well he had a good career at Chelsea, Ferguson would have made him a beast of a player

Mikel should thank Mourinho for making him have a solid career and also having legendary African players like drogba Essien makalele etc to learn from because Ferguson after mikel terrible 1 season would had treated him like fortune, djemba djemba, mame diouf etc either sold or not part player. Mikel was never even an AM self even in 2005 he was a CM like Xavi, modric etc

no be only Mikel and VM, thanks for the reminder. That boy Chukwueze from Spain should also join Arsenal and form partnership with Iwobi, so they can destroy spudites and other yeye teams

Mourinho gave him a career. Lampard and Essien are better player them him going forward. They also got that Germany legend, Ballack in the midfield. Tell me who Mikel would have benched to play attacking football for Chelsea when he can't even shoot straight? It's an unwritten rule in Football, if you want to play attacking midfield position for a top team you have to complement your skill with goal scoring abilities. minimum of 15 to 20 goals a season is expected of you hence why Lampard got the position.

Abeg go siddon on top Suya pit. Mikel should go to Spain and enjoy the beautiful game for his last years as a pro. Epl is played out.
maybe true, thanks to Mourinho, made Mikel a bonifide sideways passer, Pogba was having none of it!

The unwritten politricks of football.

Do you realise how many of Mikel's team mates fell be the wayside because of the dominance of Drogs, Lampard, Terry and Essien?

Lets be thankful he attained a measure of potential in the Premier League with trophies and spoil to show for his time at the top.

Actually It won’t be bad if Mikel came back to CFC now
He will fit perfectly into that Jorginho role. No need to spend to replace Fabregas. He will be a free option.

Mikel has made his money. Fame will not feed him in 20 years time. He should hit up dubai for more retirement cash.
