Essien: I Love Milan & Gattuso 

(IMG:http://www.4thegame.com/media/00/03/48/essien_michael_cfc_profile_2006.jpg)

Chelsea star Michael Essien has declared just how much he admires AC Milan, and in particular midfield terrier Gennaro Gattuso.

Essien is undoubtedly one of the best midfielders in the world, and earned the particular praise of many Italian journalists after a fine display against Italy for Ghana in the World Cup in 2006. 

Essien is currently on international duty for his country in the African Cup of Nations and he has taken time out to describe his love for Italian football, and in particular for Milan. 

"Italian football I like very much,” said Essien in an exclusive interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport  “From a tactical point of view it is the number one league in the world. 

“The Italian player I like the most is Gattuso. He is an extraordinary fighter - tough, but fair. 

“The team of Milan I like the most because there is Gattuso and then there are also Kakà and Maldini.”


With these complimentary comments, many Milan fans may be getting excited at the prospect of Essien possibly joining their club in the future. However the 25-year-old has stated that he is more than happy in London with Chelsea. 

"London is the best city in the world,” he declared. 

“A sea port, where hundreds of languages are spoken, and where football is played. For us English-speaking Africans who love music it is even more fascinating."

I can't see Essien joining Milan. It's one of those players that I'd love to see in a Milan shirt but I just can't see Essien leaving Chelsea.

Well, Essien is a great player. He 'd be very usefull and maybe that's a hint for us he's talking. But still,..I don't see that signing at least not yet.

But in recent days Stamford Bridge is full of Milan, ain't they?
I mean, Sheva taking about us, Drogba declaring his "virtual love" (according to goal.com) and now Essien.

I'm waiting for Chech... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Gallas was also full of praise for Milan when he was still at Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho comes to Milan and signs him and Drogba for hella money. It's the only possibility... and it's very slim.
