In 2014, it was revealed that Nigerian
International/Chelsea FC footballer John Obi Mikel had applied
for British Citizenship. This week, it has been revealed that Mikel is now
officially a British Citizen!
According to a statement released to newsmen–
“Mikel was issued a British passport last week, and he is very happy to be in
the possession of the passport”
Mikel’s rep also added that “That’s very good
news because he will no longer be counted as a foreign player in the Chelsea
squad. All the obstacles that would have prevented him playing in Europe have
been eliminated, especially in Italy.”
Fans of Chelsea need not worry about losing Mikel
this season, his rep confirmed “Mikel is not leaving Chelsea in the January
transfer window. He will only think about his future at the end of this season”
