John Mikel Obi has become the latest ex-Premier League star to move to the Chinese Super League after his transfer to Tianjin TEDA was confirmed on social media.



A picture was shared on Chinese website Webo of former Chelsea midfielder Mikel shaking hands with a Tianjin club official and holding the club's shirt.

According to Daily Mail, Mikel, who had been frozen out of Chelsea's first team this season will earn £140,000 a week.

This is almost as double of his £75,000 weekly wage at Chelsea.
