Mokio can be a great addition to any of the interested clubs. All of these clubs have been able to develop world-class players in the recent years. The academy setup at these clubs will help Mokio to evolve into a quality midfielder. In addition, he can also develop into defender with right guidance.
Chelsea have developed a huge system of hiring young players. They may even send Mokio on loan to Strasbourg for some time. Later, he can be brought back to the Chelsea’s first team squad. Gunners are also doing well in academy system.
Lastly, Man City are also planning to develop young players by sending them on loan to Girona. The Spanish side is their sister club which allows them to bring players to England whenever they want. It will be interesting to see how much will Ajax demand for Mokio.
