“I really hope we can bring him in because the player that is currently in that position is not really giving us the results that we need from him.” – John Obi Mikel has identified a specific player he hopes Chelsea will pursue in their next transfer window. Expressing his view on Chelsea’s current needs, Mikel suggested that this addition could bring crucial strength and depth to the squad.

Chelsea legend John Obi Mikel has openly shared his views on his former club and their recent form. He notably advocated for the signing of striker Victor Osimhen during the summer transfer window, though Chelsea ultimately decided to place their trust in Nicolas Jackson.

Despite Jackson’s strong start this season, Mikel still believes Chelsea would benefit from signing another striker to enhance competition.

Speaking on the *Obi One Podcast*, Mikel emphasized that adding a quality forward could help keep Jackson performing at his best, much like past Chelsea stars who thrived under similar competition.

Currently, Chelsea have another competitive option in Christopher Nkunku, who has been prolific in European matches but has yet to break into the Premier League lineup consistently. Tonight, Chelsea faces Noah in the Conference League at Stamford Bridge, where promising young talent Tyrique George is expected to make his debut.
