‘AC Milan can finish in top three this season’

Michael Essien believes that Milan can surprise in Serie A this season and is excited to be working with Pippo Inzaghi.

The Ghana midfielder spoke at length with FIFA’s official website and, alongside discussing his international career, focused on hopes this season with the Rossoneri.

“I am hoping to contribute to Milan’s success in any way I can and hoping we can finish in the top two or three,” Essien said.

“We have high hopes of doing well and my job like any other Milan player is to fight for the club when called upon so we can succeed as a group.”

The Ghanaian international has been ruled out of action for two weeks with a knee injury.
