Mourinho gives Mikel injury update

Chelsea have been struck a cruel blow, with the confirmation that John Obi Mikel will be out until at least April, following surgery on an injury.  

Mourinho prefers to deploy on defensive midfielder alongside the more creative Cesc Fabregas, and has struggled with injuries and suspension in this regard. In the League Cup Final, the Chelsea boss was forced to play Kurt Zouma as his holding midfielder.

Speaking recently, Mourinho said, “Mikel had a little surgery on his meniscus. 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] the first week of April.”
