Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has revealed that has recovered from an ankle injury and will be available for selection in this weekend's English Premier League fixture against Manchester United.
Mikel has missed the last three games for Chelsea, but he is now ready to return.
“I will start playing again this weekend,” Mikel told KickOffNigeria.com.
He also disclosed that he is looking forward to the must-win World Cup qualifier against Kenya on November 14.
“It is very important for us to get a win. We all have to work hard and pray that the result favours us,” said Mikel, who missed Nigeria's last match against Mozambique in October as a result of this injury.
