Former Super Eagles captain, John Obi Mikel, has urged the new Chelsea manager that he needs to bring in two “world class” centre-backs this summer.
Maresca is on the verge of making Tosin Adarabioyo his first signing.
Adarabioyo arrives at Stamford Bridge as a free agent from Fulham.
But Mikel Obi believes his former club will need the fill the gap created by the exit of Thiago Silva.
The Nigerian also hinted neither Benoit Badiashile or Axel Disasi are ready to step up.
“Thiago Silva is leaving, we need a couple of centre-halves.
“I don’t think Benoit Badiashile is the guy for Chelsea, no.
“[Axel] Disasi, no. They’re still young players, they will develop.
“We need proven, two top centre-backs who will come in there and stabilise that back four. We need that. We need two world-class centre-halves,” Mikel Obi said on The Obi One Podcast.
