Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Nigerian midfielder, John Obi Mikel, might be on the sold-out player list.
Mikel has been out favor for couple of years now, but it seems the arrival of Fabregas, and the stay of ramirez and Matic might means the end for Mikel.
Drogba also re-joined the Blues on last week friday, but PL Clubs can only name 17 foreign players over the age of 21 in their official 25-man squads and Chelsea have 18 overseas stars who are realistically vying for those places.
Mourinho has now decided that one of Fernando Torres, Peter Cech or Mikel will be asked to leave the club this summer.
“From the group you are expecting us to have as a squad, I have to send one away because we have one extra foreign player.
“So from all these players, if you think all of them have to stay, you are wrong. One of them has to go,” Mourinho said.
Mikel has made over 200 league appearances since joining Chelsea in 2006.
