“To everyone at Chelsea - goodbye, and thank you,” he added. “You will always be part of who I am, and I wish you the best of luck.



“I could not be happier to be saying goodbye with the club back where it belongs - top of the league.”
It is understood that Mikel passed a medical with the Chinese Super League club on Thursday and has reportedly agreed a three-year deal worth £140,000-a-week.
