Onazi Ogenyi and Mikel Obi are are back in training with Trabzonspor as they gradually work their back to full fitness having been sidelined for months.

Super Eagles midfielder Onazi has been out for a year with a ligament damage, while Mikel got sidelined a month ago.

While both players have been off the treatment table for while, their return dates have been only subject of speculation.

Mikel followed up an earlier Instagram post informing on his readiness “to be back on the pitch” with an update: Happy to be back on the pitch with the team

The caption accompanied a picture of Mikel and Nigerian forward Anthony Nwakaeme.
