Mikel returns to social media after three-week absence

Super Eagles skipper, Mikel Obi, has broken a three-week social media silence.

The 29-year-old has somewhat been off the spotlight following his winter move from Chelsea to the Chinese Super League (CSL) side, Tianjin TEDA.

Mikel seemed to have suddenly gone AWOL on social networking platforms with his last post coming exactly three weeks ago on Instagram.

However, it is likely that the Nigerian is back to his usual social self after his latest message on Instagram on Tuesday.

The charismatic midfielder shared a photo of himself and some of his TEDA teammates ahead of the start of the CSL season.

However, the Nigerian is yet to make a single update on Twitter since his move to TEDA because it is banned in the country.

Mikel will be expected to lead the club to a top finish after ending last season 10th on the log.
