In the past, the famous player Michael Essien may soon participate in the activities of an Italian club.
Indeed, the "Como" team's purchase was initiated by the African's wife Akosua Puni, who bid a considerable amount at auction to acquire the rights to representatives of "Lega Pro."
It is reported that the woman paid about 240 thousand euros, and in the deal, the team's logo and training base are not included.
"The new owners will make every effort for the team to return to "Serie B," and for the young talents of the team to reveal their potential," - stated in a "Como" announcement.
In the past, M. Essien has played for teams such as London's "Chelsea" or "Milan," and currently represents the Indonesian "Persib Bandung" club.
