The former super eagle’s Captain, John Mikel Obi has revealed what he plans to do with his life after retirement.

Speaking jokingly with his former teammate, Frank Lampard about becoming his assistant at Chelsea,

Mikel said

I am very happy for Frank. When we were playing at Chelsea, we are expecting that John Terry and he would be very good managers, but we were expecting Terry to reach that level first. But Lampard made a big step. “His arrival at Chelsea means the club is caring for their legends. I joked with him after the Chelsea move, I want to be his assistant when I retire. “I hope he will be successful at Chelsea for many more years. I also want to see John Terry in similar jobs in the future because he was our leader on the pitch.”
