John Obi Mikel has begun stepping up his preparation for his Chinese Super League debut as the former Chelsea midfielder is pictured in a calming mood with his new teammates.
In the picture, the Nigerian appears to have settled in with his Tianjin TEDA teammates having penned a three-year, £140,000-per-week deal.
The footballer is Tianjin’s star signing and moves after 10 years with Chelsea to boost manager Jaime Pacheco’s side, ahead of the new season.
