Michael Essien I enjoyed my punditry debut – Michael Essien Ghana and Chelsea legend Michael Essien who on
Monday, August 8, 2016, started a new career in
football as a pundit says he is in love with the
new occupation.
The former Ghana international made his punditry
debut during the Saudi Super Cup between Al Ahli
and Al Hilal played in London.
Essien joined the panel on set for Saudi-based
MBC Sports in a makeshift studio built at Craven
Cottage for the game which saw Al Ahli claim the
2016 Saudi Super Cup with a 4-3 penalty shootout
win after a 1-1 draw with Al Hilal.
The night saw several fans travel from Saudi
Arabia to join many others living in the UK to
watch the game amounting to a crowd of over 16,000
in attendance.
Michael Essien took to Twitter to show
appreciation to MBC Pro Sports for the invite and
how he enjoyed the role given him.
