LONDON - Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel was banned
from driving for 15 months on Friday after he admitted
drink-driving.
The 22-year-old midfielder was found to be at almost twice the
limit when he was stopped by police in his Range Rover in west
London in January, the Press Association reported.
The Nigerian international, who signed for Chelsea for 16
million pounds in 2006 from Lyn Oslo, was also ordered to pay 1,580
pounds at West London Magistrates' Court.
