Chelsea have confirmed that Nigeria international John Obi Mikel has signed for Chinese Super League side Tianjin TEDA.
Mikel departs Chelsea after a spell nearly 11 years at Stamford Bridge, where he won the Champions League and two Premier League titles after arriving in controversial circumstances from Lyn Oslo.
The 29-year-old midfielder is expected to earn £140,000 per week in the CSL and follows former Blues team-mate Oscar in moving to China this month, with Carlos Tevez and Axel Witsel other high-profile imports by the up-and-coming league.
