Former Chelsea star not interested in Everton move

Former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel had been linked to a move at Everton, when the transfer window opens next season.

The 30-year-old, who plays for Tianjin Teda in the Chinese Super League, has dismissed all such rumours, despite having admitted that the competition in China “lags behind the Premier League”.

Mikel told Tianjin TV: “I don’t know from where such a rumour could come, but this story is untrue. I want to stay in the CSL and play for Teda. I’m sure there will be lots of speculation about me as the transfer window nears but it is a false rumour”.

“The CSL lags behind the Premier League, but their level is still quite high. I believe more matches will help me get in shape for the 2018 World Cup. I just hope to stay injury free next year and have an amazing season with Teda.”
