John Obi Mikel is currently in England to undergo a surgery to repair the abdominal strain picked at his Chinese club Tianjin Teda.
The 30-year-old has missed three games for the Tianjin Tigers since suffering the strain in the team’s 2-0 win against Chongqing Lifan – where he got his first league goal.
According to reports, returning to England was required because the midfielder had undergone series of tests in China – including nuclear magnetic resonance, but the cause of injury which gives him discomfort could not be detected.
