The Nigeria captain’s contract is due to expire on June 30, 2017 and he is free to talk with clubs in January, as is normal for players with only six months remaining on their contracts.
It’s believed that he has offers from at least two Chinese clubs, as well as clubs in Europe.
If he leaves, he’ll be joining his Brazilian teammate Oscar, as Shanghai SIPG has offered around £52 million to secure the play-maker from west London ahead of the January window.
Mikel has been frozen out of the Chelsea side, having not made a single appearance this season.
