Chelsea midfielder Jon Obi Mikel wants a quick return from injury of teammate Michael Essien.
The Ghana international will be out for six months after suffering a horror knee injury in Chelsea’s first pre-season training at Cobham.
Essien’s Nigerian teammate, Mikel however believes his idol will make a quicker return than expected.
“Unfortunately Michael Essien has been injured, and we all feel sorry for him and wish him well and hopefully he can come back very soon,” Mikel told the club’s website.
Essien, 28, has since undergone successful surgery and is now in rehabilitation.
