The Ghanaian midfielder Michael Essien who just collapsed on the pitch during training, there was no other player was near him.He was taken to the hospital where a scan was done on his knee.
The early signs were not at all good and it could very well mean that Essien could be out from six to eight months and will play for Chelsea in 2012 only.
This is a major blow to the plans of the new Chelsea manager Andrea Villas Boas.
this means Chelsea will now have to look out for another play maker come midfielder. The main reason being that Michael Essie had damaged his knee in 2008 and was out for over six months then.
Chelsea will now look for either Luka Mordic or Marin. But Luka Mordic has said he is not leaving Tottenham Hotspurs.
Sadly this is Michael Essiens third major knee injury in three years, and there are big fears that it may end his career.
