John Obi Mikel To Sit Out Maribor Clash
Published: October 21, 2014
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has confirmed that the defensive midfielder has failed to recover from a foot injury, which means he will not be included in the 18 - man squad list for the visit of the Slovenian champions.
The Super Eagles star was an unused substitute last weekend in the 2 - 1 away win over Crystal Palace in the EPL.
John Obi Mikel tasted action for 19 minutes as Chelsea defeated Sporting Lisbon 1 - 0 on September 30, his only appearance in the Champions League this season, having failed to come off the bench against Schalke 04.
The 27 - year - old has made five Premier League appearances in the ongoing campaign.
