Enyimba coach, Finidi George has dismissed reports linking former Super Eagles skipper John Obi Mikel to the Aba-based outfit after the midfielder become a free agent.

While speaking on Enyimba’s preparation towards the CAF Confederation Cup play-off tie against Al Ittihad of Libya, Finidi noted that reports linking Mikel to Enyimba were untrue.

“Even if there will be another camping, that will be held in Aba. We won’t be going out of Aba for now.”
