A report by Complete Sports reveals that Mikel missed the last encounter due to fears that the wrist injury is continuing to be a problem to his game.
The Injury sustained by Mikel was while he was on national duty with the Super Eagles at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
In the second group game fixture against Iceland, Mikel picked up the wrist injury as the Super Eagles picked up their only win of the World Cup.
There is no official statement yet by Tianjin Teda about the extent of the injury as suggestions are that Mikel missed the game just due to precautionary measures.
Other media outlets suggest that Mikel’s injury is a reoccurrence of his wrist but that he was rested due to swollen knees.
