Urmărește-ne pe DiscoverFotbalistul, care a cum este poreclit "Bizonul" pentru forţa sa, este unul dinte cei mai valoroşi jucăori ai lui Chelsea, fiind evaluat la suma de 38 de milioane de euro!
"Am participat la două trialuri la United, dar am fost considerat prea scund pentru cerinţele echipei. Cred că Sir Alex căuta un jucător de un anumit tip şi eu nu eram pe placul lui", a spus Essien, citat de "The Sun".
Chelsea l-a transferat pe Essien în anul 2005, de la echipa franceză Olympique Lyon.
