The Blues manager Jose Mourinho has ruled out Chelsea FC defensive midfielder John Obi Mikel, until April according to reports from England. The ‘special one' revealed that the Nigerian international underwent a meniscus surgery that will keep him out of action for at least three more weeks.
The injury was initially believed to be a head injury in the FA Cup clash against Bradford City, but he tasted action against Aston Villa in the Premier League.
Mourinho stated that: "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 hope. I would say he will return in the first week of April."
Mikel missed the Capital One Cup final, as he was ruled out in the week leading up to the encounter and Kurt Zouma stepped in to the defensive midfield role to replace the suspended Serbian interntional Nemanja Matic.
