Injury forced Ghanaian star Michael Essien to miss AC Milan's latest slump against Genoa - report
Ghana midfielder Michael Essien was left behind in AC Milan’s stinging home defeat to Genoa due to an injury, reports in Italy claim, calming fears that he has been axed by the Serie A giants.
The Ghana international was axed from the Rossoneri squad that slumped to yet another defeat in Serie-A on Wednesday.
Football-Italia is now reporting that the 32-year-old was left out due to an injury.
The report however didn’t give details of the injury sustained by the Ghana international.
Essien has increasingly been a bit-part player since arriving from Chelsea in January 2014.
The Ghanaian’s 18-month contract is up at the end of the current campaign and will not be extended.
He must therefore look for a new club with reports linking him with a move to the MLS.
