Mikel: I am fit for AFCON

And he has now told MTNFootball.com that he is as fit as fiddle and ready for action to pour cold water over speculations regarding his availability for this month’s AFCON.

“I am going to be at Nations Cup as there is nothing to worry about concerning the injury, it is over,” Mikel told MTNFootball.com. “I am okay and fit for action. I am already looking forward to play in the FA Cup game against Southampton. I was advised by the doctor to rest it for the QPR game, otherwise I was ready to play.”

Injury ruled out the Chelsea star from the 2010 World Cup in South Africa at the last minute and Mikel has again told MTNFootball.com he will be at the Eagles training camp in Faro, Portugal, on Saturday.
