Chelsea legend Michael Essien to extend career in Croatia

Published on: 19 February 2017

Chelsea legend Michael Essien is ready to extend his playing career.

Essien hasn't played since leaving Panathinaikos in August.

Radio Rijeka reports the 34-year-old is on the verge of making a move to Croatia's HNK Rijeka.

Essien will be hoping he enjoys a more fruitful spell in Croatia than he did in Athens.

The Ghanaian's time at Panathinaikos was marred by injury and an ongoing legal dispute.

Essien had a year on his contract with the Greek side and claims he was released without his consent.
