Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel will miss the FA Cup final
against Portsmouth on May 15 after undergoing minor knee surgery.
The Nigerian, who will also miss the final Barclays Premier
League game of the season against Wigan on Sunday, has not played
for three weeks because of the injury.
A Chelsea statement read: "John Mikel Obi has undergone minor
knee surgery and will take no part in Sunday's final Barclays
Premier League match nor the FA Cup final.
"The operation is due to an injury suffered when fouled by
Bolton's Kevin Davies last month and subsequently led to Mikel's
early substitution at Tottenham the following match."
