The Blues Boss has not held talks with John Obi Mikel over his future at Chelsea.

The Nigeria international will be out of contract at the end of the season and it’s not looking good having not made any appearance for the Blues this season.

But Conte says it is too early for him to be talking to the 29-year-old about his future at Stamford Bridge and refuses to do so until he can further asses the situation after the Premier League season is over.

He said: “It is normal at every squad that arrive at the end of their contract and the club will make a decision.

“Mikel is working very well, in the past he had some injuries, but now he is working very hard and I’m pleased with his work rate.

“I have not spoke to him, but it is important to be focused on the championship in this period.

“We are in November, we can face them situations later.”
