Former Super Eagles captain and Chelsea player John Obi Mikel, has backed Chelsea manager, Frank Lampard for the on-going work at Chelsea.
The Trabzonspor midfielder said he would not mind becoming Lampard’s assistant at Stamford Bridge when he retires from playing football.
"I am very happy for Frank. When we were playing at Chelsea, we knew that him and John Terry would be very good managers, but we were expecting Terry to reach that level first, but Lampard made a big step to become Chelsea manager," Mikel told Sport Witness.
"His arrival at Chelsea means the club cares for their legends, . I joked with him after the Chelsea move, I want to be his assistant when I retire. I hope he will be successful at Chelsea for many more years.
"I also want to see John Terry in similar jobs in the future because he was our leader on the pitch."
