Career
In the club
Mikari grew up in Zurich. In his youth he played at FC Unterstrass before he moved to the youth department of FC Zurich . In summer 2001 he went to local rivals Grasshoppers Zurich .
In the National League A , as the top division of Switzerland was called at the time, he made his debut on May 4, 2002 in the game against BSC Young Boys , when he came on for Eduardo Dos Santos in the 75th minute. In the 4-1 away win, he contributed the decisive goal to make it 2-1. In his second season, when he was national champion with the club, he was on the field three times. Overall, the left footer came to GCZ five appearances in the first division.
After two years, Mikari moved to FC Luzern in the Challenge League . In his first year he attracted attention with seven goals this season. In his second year he scored two goals this season in ten games and was lured away by league rivals FC Winterthur in January 2005 . With strong performances, he recommended himself for a commitment in the top division and in January 2007 he returned to the Grasshoppers. Originally used in left midfield, he ousted Kim Jaggy to the position of left full-back. In 2009 he moved to FC Sochaux .
In July 2013 he returned to his country of birth and signed a three-year contract with FC Luzern until the end of the 2016/17 season.
