Inter Milan keen on John Obi Mikel

Inter Milan will look to acquire the services of Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel should they fail in the pursuit of Felipe Melo.

The Nigerian international is expected to seek a fresh challenge away from Stamford Bridge this summer, in spite of manager Jose Mourinho's willingness to keep him at the club.

Reports in Italy cite that the Nerazzurri could make a move for the talented midfielder, if they fail to clinch a summer deal for Galatasaray's Felipe Melo.

Mikel joined the Premier League champions from Lyn Oslo in the summer of 2006.
