Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard are nearing the end of their Chelsea contracts…
Chelsea currently top the Premier League table, but there’s no way they’ll be quiet in the transfer market this summer…
Here’s five players we reckon could be shipped out of Stamford Bridge come the end of the season, regardless of whether the Blues secure the title.
5) John Obi Mikel
Since the Blues signed Nemanja Matic in the summer, Mikel’s role as anchorman in the starting lineup has been limited. The Nigerian is solid, but he’s never been a fans’ favourite as his work-rate is not particularly impressive, and he virtually never ventures forward in search of a goal. In fact, he’s the kind of player who seems to have forged a career in a very good side, without having to do an awful lot himself. He’s dispensable, and with Marco Van Ginkel returning from injury, he could move on.
