Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel will consider making a move to the Chinese Super League in the summer, reports the London Evening Standard.

The 28 year old is the latest Chelsea player to be targeted for transfer by wealthy clubs in the Chinese Super League.

It is understood that at least three teams are looking into the possibility of buying Mikel, including Jiangsu and Shanghai SIPG, who have former England coach Sven Goran Eriksen as manager.

The Nigeria international's current contract at Chelsea has just over a year left to run and the club are prepared to give him an extension.
