John Obi Mikel's Dad admits he's concerned for his son's career at Chelsea after manager Jose Mourinho confronted him earlier this month over his attitude.
Elder Michael Obi told Nigeria's Daily Sun: "We are very sad. His mother also is worried. We had tried to get him but he no longer pick our calls. I don't know why he is behaving like this. We are not happy about it, but I was told the problem has been settled. I learnt that he has been responding well to training. I hope to see him back to action. I hope to see him play a good boy role again because the coach loves him.
"Mourinho has shown more interest in him than any other player in the team. As a young man, I expected him to concentrate on his career.
"We are all involved in his football career. The whole family is worried, and we hope to see a better Mikel. We have heard enough of this."
