The ex-Chelsea midfielder is without a club just months after leaving the Bet 365 stadium for the middle-east in Kuwait
Kuwait Sporting Club have sacked former Super Eagles captain John Mikel Obi just months after he signed a contract with the side.
Mikel joined Kuwait SC from Stoke City in the summer transfer window, but the middle-east club have now announced that his contract has been terminated.
The Brigadiers took to their social media account to announce the immediate termination of Mikel’s contract, but the reason for the decision was not stated.
The former Super Eagles midfielder had initially signed a one-year extension with the Potters before terminating his contract to join Kuwait SC.
Obi had joined Stoke after Trabzonspor also terminated his contract after refusing to play due to the coronavirus pandemic.
It remains to be seen what lies next for him, but a return to England, where his family resides, is a possibility.

Mike is staying too on the pitch. He consider hanging his boots
You can't predict Mikel obi, he has plans.
Mikel should take this easy he should relaxed and find a club to train with in the interim so as to be fitted
That’s a bad record to your profile bro !!
He should come back to Nigeria and join any club ,just as musa did
It's good to b fair with pple u work with,the person DAT helped him with DAT contract was not paid his agreement money, according to d guy he said Mikel cheated him,u can see d boomerang
I believe he has a plan. Let it not surprise you if you see him in tottenham jersey soon.
MIKEL IS A GOOD PLAYER : HE SHOULD NOT WORRIED, HE WILL GET ANOTHER CLUB.
Hi bro Mikel,sacking by a club in Kuwait is not speaking good about you..
In a football, anything is possible. Merci and Ronald all left their clubs even as it was unbelievable, eve though not sacking. Footballers lives in another club. My worry is why should he get to such a place initially? Which money was he looking for in the middle East? Clubs are there in Europe where he can return now.
