Jose Mourinho has said that Super Eagles midfielder, John Mikel Obi, has all the qualities required to become Chelsea captain some day.
The Blues boss was responding in a question and answer session with reporters.
“Mikel is, after John (Terry), the guy with most years of Chelsea. I think (Cesc) Fabregas has personality for a captain too. Eden is coming with big status now and was voted one of the top ten players in Europe last year. In my opinion he should be in the top three not in the top ten.
“Let’s see what is going to happen, but we have these people. But let’s say John and Branislav are our captains and the others are ready to come.”
Mikel Obi has featured prominently for Chelsea, in their pre-season tour of the US and it has been widely reported that Mourinho blocked his exit this summer.
