JOHN SHITTU: It Is Possible For John Obi Mikel To Join Inter Milan

John Obi Mikel’s agent has confirmed “Inter are interested and it’s a possibility, but right now he is a Chelsea player.”

There have been repeated links with the Nigeria international since Walter Mazzarri took over and it seems likely there will be a summer offer for the midfielder.

“Inter? What I can tell you is that I met with my client and the directors and they are interested in him,” agent John Shittu told FcInterNews.it.

John Obi Mikel Set For Chelsea Exit

Fresh reports from London have claimed John Obi Mikel wants to leave Chelsea at the end of the season.

The report is coming only days after his agent denied the player is interested in moves away from Stamford Bridge. A report in the Daily Mail said that the Nigeria star, 26, wants to leave because he has found first-team opportunities restricted since manager Jose Mourinho’s return last summer.

The January arrival of Nemanja Matic, an important addition in a holding role, has further limited Mikel’s chances. But he still has three years on his contract and the Blues would demand a hefty fee.
