Mikel has no business again in Chelsea--Akpoborie

EX-international Jonathan Ak

poborie has advised John Mikel Obi to quit Chelsea and try his luck with Napoli in order to give his career a new lease of life.
"The writing is on the wall that he (Mikel) is not Jose Mourinho's first choice. In my own opinion, Mikel should go to Napoli now," Akpoborie, a former player of VfB Stuttgart and Wolfsburg declared.
The former Hansa Rostock of Germany forward said it also became necessary if the 2013 Africa
Cup of Nations (AFCON) winner is become the 2013 CAF Africa's Best Player.
"Mikel is a sure candidate for the Africa Player of the Year 2013 award going by what he did at the Nations Cup and the Confederations Cup . He also did well for Chelsea as they won the UEFA Europa League, but all those efforts will be in vain if he doesn't get to play regularly for his club. He needs to leave Chelsea now for him to get the chance to win the award," said
Akpoborie, a member of the 1985 Golden Eaglets FIFA U-17 World cup winning squad.
It will be recalled that manager, Jose Mourinho has yet to feature Mikel in competitve games since his sensational return to the Stamford bridge this season.
Among clubs jostling for the signature of the FIFA U-20 World Cup silver medallist in 2005 are Serie A side, Napoli; FC Anzhi Makhachkala of Russia  and Turkish giants, Galatasary.
