Mikel vibes to Afrobeats in the gym
The 37-year-old looks fully fit despite retiring three years ago and has featured in a number of testimonial and charity matches for Chelsea and other organisations.
As seen in posts shared on his Instagram stories, he shared a video of himself doing different routines in the gym and vibing to Omah Lay's Holy Ghost. He had a Moussa Sissoko’s Nantes jersey hanging on his wall.
The 2013 African Cup of Nations winning captain has been a fan of Afrobeats for many years and had an alleged row with A-list artiste 2face Idibia over an unverified club incident.
Both men denied the incident years after it was reported, with the footballer clarifying it to Daily Post and adding that he is a big fan of the African queen legend.
