Chelsea Football Club Manager Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Mikel Obi will be out till April as he will be undergoing a minor knee surgery in order to be match fit, according to DailyStar UK.
“Mikel had a little surgery on his meniscus,” the Special One said.
“We are expecting him to be out for about a month – one week is already gone. There is not too much optimism or pessimism.
“I would say [he will return] first week of April.”
Mikel will most likely miss the Nigeria versus Bolivia match billed for Uyo, Akwa Ibom State on March 26 and also miss the Premier League matches against West Ham, Southampton and Hull City.
