John Obi-Mikel Salary and Net Worth: Nigerian footballer John Obi-Mikel has a net worth of $45 million. John Obi Mikel, who was born in Jos, Nigeria, in 1987, plays midfield for Chelsea and is a member of the Nigerian national team. Mikel's career began at the age of 12 when he was selected for the Pepsi Football Academy, and he went on to represent Nigeria at the FIFA Under-17 World Championships. While there, he guided Nigeria to the finals and was voted the tournament's second-best player. In 2005, it was announced that he would join Manchester United, but days later, Chelsea confirmed that they had reached an agreement with Mikel. Mikel attended a press conference with Manchester United before signing a contract with the European team. A few weeks later, Mikel went missing while watching a match from the stands, prompting Manchester United to accuse Chelsea of kidnapping the footballer. Mikel then admitted to traveling to London, where he claimed Manchester United forced him into signing his contract without his agent and that he preferred to play for Chelsea. Nearly a year later, Chelsea negotiated an agreement with Mikel's current club, Lyn Oslo, and signed him to a contract in 2006. Mikel has received numerous individual awards, including African Young Player of the Year in 2005 and 2006, as well as Chelsea Young Player of the Year in 2007 and 2008. He was included to the Nigerian national team roster for the FIFA World Cup in 2014.
