Super Eagles’ defender, Kenneth Omeruo, has moved closer to rejoining Chelsea, with latest reports claiming new manager Jose Mourinho, has approved the player’s return from a loan spell at Dutch Eredivise club ADO Den Haag.
According to a representative of Omeruo, the player’s return to the London club is almost complete, although the final details will be sorted after his campaign at the FIFA Confederation Cup holding in Brazil from June 17 to 30.
The fast-rising defender is currently in the Eagles’ camp in Windhoek preparing for a crucial World Cup 2014 qualifier with Namibia on Wednesday. “It is now 95 per cent certain that Kenneth will team up with Chelsea for the coming season,” the player’s representative said yesterday. “Mourinho has said he wants to work with Kenneth after watching him at the Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa where he held his own against top players like Didier Drogba of Cote d’Ivoire.
