Wembley Stadium, familiar terrain ―Mikel

Super Eagles’ stars, John Obi Mikel and Kelechi Iheanacho have commented on the upcoming pre-World Cup friendly game against England at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

Mikel, who spent more than ten years at Chelsea, winning the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Community Shield, Champions League and Europa League during his time at Stamford Bridge, said that it will be an interesting match against the Three Lions.

”We are in England, a terrain most of us know too well. I was here and won several trophies with Chelsea, including the Champions League. It will be an interesting encounter on Saturday,” Mikel told thenff.com.

On his part, Iheanacho, who is also familiar with the England squad as he is teammate with Harry Maguire and Jamie Vardy, and shared the same dressing room with Raheem Sterling, John Stones and Fabian Delph at Manchester City, said that it will be a good match.

Iheanacho: “England’s players know us and we know them. It will be a good match.”
