Joel Obi Out For The Season

The 2012 - 2013 season has not gone well for Inter Milan midfielder Joel Obi.

Not only did he miss the African Cup of Nations tournament in South Africa, his appearances in the Serie A have been limited due to fitness concerns.

Celebrated Italian sports daily Corriere dello Sport reported on Sunday morning that Obi has secretly undergone an operation in Finland to strengthen the quadriceps tendon.

Thus, he looks to be out of reckoning for Inter Milan's remaining games in the championship.

Obi managed only four appearances for Inter Milan in the current campaign - 2 games in the Serie A, 1 game in Europe and another in the Italian Cup.

He has contractual obligations with the Nerrazzuri until June, 2017.
