Mikel Obi Names Thierry Henry as Premier League’s Greatest Player
Former Chelsea midfielder John Mikel Obi has named Thierry Henry as the greatest player in Premier League history, putting the Arsenal legend at the top of his list.
Mikel Obi, who played alongside legends like Lampard, Drogba, and Terry during his time at Chelsea, doesn’t believe Salah has done enough to be named the greatest.
Speaking on the Obi One Podcast, Mikel said, “Numbers-wise, you can put Salah in the conversation, but when you talk about a complete player, you can’t put him in that conversation.”
Mikel, who’s close friends with Salah, praised the winger’s growth over the years. “I’m a huge fan of Salah; I’ve known him since our Chelsea days. He’s a different player now—mentally and physically stronger, and more confident.”
But for Mikel, there’s one player who stands above all: “The best player to have played in the Premier League is Thierry Henry,” he said. “For two to three years, he completely dominated the league. He had everything—fantastic on the ball, fast, skilled—he was phenomenal.”
Manchester United have released a list of players who are expected to leave the club during the summer transfer window.
A statement from the club listed the players as Jadon Sancho, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe.
It was noted that Casemiro enjoyed a strong season at the club and built an excellent reputation during his time with the team.
Meanwhile, Tyrell Malacia made 50 first-team appearances for Manchester United during his spell at the club.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
