Injured Chelsea star Michael Essien has targeted a return to action next month.
“According to rehabilitation physio Thierry Laurent, it should not take more than one month for me to play actively again,” Essien told 90minutes. “He has assured me that once we go through a few other exercises for two or three weeks, I should be fit enough to return to the pitch.”
“Hiddink has been around for quite a while and knows what it takes to get positive results out of nothing,” added Essien.
