Mikel Hungry for More Trophies

By Daily Sports on May 7, 2019

John Obi Mikel is coy about his future at Middlesbrough, after revealing that he has offers from other clubs.

Mikel scored his maiden goal in the Championship on Sunday as Tony Pulis’ men ended their season with a 2-1 win over Rotherham United.

Derby County’s win over West Brom saw Boro finish seventh on the league table, a point behind the playoff zone.

Mikel, who is a winner of major honours including two Premier League titles, Uefa

Champions League and Europa League winners’ medals, is hungry for more silverware but he is open to talks with Middlesbrough.

When quizzed whether he would continue his career with the Teesside outfit, the former

Chelsea star told BBC Tees: “I don’t know, you can never say never. My contract ends and that’s why I’m saying ‘they’ (about Boro).

“If there’s a conversation, OK, fine. It’s a great club, they will find the right players and make sure next season they are in the playoff or automatic promotion.

“We’ll see what happens. We’ll have a conversation with my people and see what comes up. I have a few options here and there, there’s a lot of options, you always have to pick the right one and the way you play and what you want to achieve.

“I still want to win trophies, I’ll go somewhere where the players, the team, the fans, the staff, want to win.”

Prior to the final drama, Middlesbrough’s playoff hopes were dealt a huge blow when they suffered six straight defeats in the English second-tier league in March. (Goal)
