•As Eagles star finally confirms Chelsea exit
Valencia and Inter have renewed fight over Super Eagles midfielder, John Mikel Obi, after the Nigerian confirmed that he may quit Chelsea.
Mikel has seen his first place team place reduced since the arrival of Nemenja Matic from Benfica and could further suffer more setbacks following the arrival of Cesc Fabregas from FC Barcelona in the summer.
Mikel has been attracting the interest of Serie A side, Inter Milan and recently Valencia and Chinenye Kanu, Mikel’s best friend hints that the coast is now clear for him to leave the South London club.
“I think he may reconsider his future at Chelsea but that I don’t know yet. No player likes to sit on the bench and being paid for doing nothing and I don’t think Mikel is an exception. If he gets an offer and it’s good he will think about it. He will definitely take a final decision after the World Cup,” Kanu told Newswatch Sports.
Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho is reported to be considering selling about seven players this summer with Mikel and Victor Moses topping his list. The 27-year-old was controversially bought for a fee of 16 million pounds from tiny Norwegian club, Lyn Oslo following a protracted transfer battle with Manchester United in 2006.He has since been a mainstay at Chelsea, winning a succession of trophies under a series of managers.
