Michael Essien could be set to leave Chelsea in the January transfer window with several major European sides interested, according to his agent.
The Ghanaian international spent last season on loan with Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid, but had made just three Premier League appearances for the Blues this term.
And according to his agent Fabian Piveteau, Essien could leave Stamford Bridge permanently in the next month.
‘He could leave Chelsea this winter,’ Piveteau told French radio station RMC.
‘Several major European clubs playing in the Champions League were informed and the situation should settle down within the next 10 days.
