Super Eagles midfielder Mikel Agu returned to action after spending seven weeks on the sidelines in Bursaspor’s 1-1 draw with Gençlerbirliği in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday afternoon.
The Porto loanee has not kicked a ball in a competitive fixture since November 4 when he had to be substituted against Kasimpasa after picking up a knee injury, which prevented him from playing against Algeria and Argentina.
In addition to Mikel making the Bursaspor starting line-up, international teammate and CAF Player of the Year nominee William Troost-Ekong also put in a full shift for the Green Crocodiles.
škuletić opened the scoring for the hosts six minutes into the second half, but Titi’s 65th minute leveler earned a share of the spoils for Bursaspor.
Mikel has recorded 12 appearances in the Turkish top-flight and has two goals to his name, while Troost-Ekong has played four more games with the same number of goals.
Whilst Troost-Ekong is guaranteed a spot in the Super Eagles team for the World Cup, Mikel would be hoping his performances in the next 17 games in the Super Lig would impress manager Gernot Rohr. (The Sun)
