Nigerian international, John Mikel Obi will henceforth seize to be a Trabzonspor player after mutual agreement from both parties.

The Turkish Super Lig club confirmed on Tuesday that Mikel has also given up his remaining wages.

Mikel only joined Black Sea Storm as a free agent on a two-year deal last summer, at the end of his brief stint in the Championship with Middlesbrough.

“The professional football player agreement between our company and John Obi Mikel on 30.06.2019 start date 31.05.2021 has been mutually terminated. With a mutual termination agreement, the football player gave up all his forward-looking receivables,” the club announced.

Last Saturday, Mikel criticised Turkish football authorities for not suspending the Super Lig season despite the spread of the coronavirus across Europe.

The former Premier League star stated he does not feel comfortable during the Covid-19 outbreak and called for the season to be cancelled.
