Chelsea seal £16m Mikel transfer Chelsea have agreed a transfer deal for Nigerian youngster Jon Obi Mikel. The Premiership champions will pay a combined £16m transfer fee for Mikel, with £12m going to Manchester Untied and £4m to Norwegian club Lynn Oslo.
The agreement resolves the future of the 19-year-old, who has been the subject of a bitter dispute between the three clubs.
United have agreed "to terminate their option agreement" with Mikel, whose registration goes to Chelsea.
"Under the terms of this agreement Chelsea will pay Manchester United £12m, half payable now and half in 12 months, and Lyn £4m, half payable now, and half payable in 12 months' time," said a United statement.
