Besiktas turn to Obi Mikel

Mikel attracts Besiktas interest

Besiktas turn to Obi Mikel

27 August 2015 - 06:03

Turkish side Besiktas will look to land the signature of Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel after they failed to get a deal done for Liverpool's Lucas Leiva.

  • Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Aston Villa, Palmer starts
  • Chelsea ready to sell four home-grown players

  • The Brazilian international had been tipped to make his way to Turkey, but Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers made a U-turn and opted to keep hold of the midfielder.

    A report from The Mail now claims that out-of-favour Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has become Besiktas' top target with the transfer window closing next week.

    Mikel has been at Chelsea since 2006.
