CHELSEA TO PAY £10 MILLION

From The Sun on the ongoing saga of the untried Nigeran.

Chelsea will splash out £12million to land the hottest property in world football — John Obi Mikel.

Incredibly, £10m of the Mikel fee will be handed over to rivals Manchester United, who thought they had landed his signature.

Nigerian teen whizz Mikel is set to sign a three-year deal at Stamford Bridge this week.

The 18-year-old has been at the centre of a protracted tug-of-war between United and the Premiership champions over his signature from Norwegian club Lyn Oslo, who will also get £2m from Chelsea.
