Till we meet again: Jose Mourinho gave Essien a hint of his return to Chelsea on the final day of last season.


  In Real Madrid's final match of the season, Michael Essien scored a goal in Madrid's 4-2 victory against Osasuna. He went on to celebrate the goal by hugging Mourinho who was at at the bench for the last time as a Madrid manager. The Chelsea midfielder, who was on loan last season with Madrid now reveals that in that moment, Mourinho informed him of his return to Chelsea this coming season.
Essien celebrates his goal against Osasuna on the last day of the 2012-13 season.
                                                                                                                                                        
 In his blog for www,chelseafc.com Essien wrote, 'When I scored my last goal for Real Madrid on the last day of the season, I ran over to celebrate with him and was expecting him to congratulate me when I hugged him,'
'Instead he leaned over and said: "See you at pre-season training on July 8". I found that so funny.'
'We are now back together where we belong and where we had so many beautiful years together and I hope we can recreate those magical years.'

Essien hopes to relive the "beautiful years" that he spent with Mourinho during his first spell as a Chelsea manager


Essien, who had been sent on loan to Madrid last season, hopes to give his all to Chelsea this season along side Mourinho whom he affectionately calls 'daddy'.

He said, 'I am ready to give my all to Chelsea.'
'I haven’t lost any desire or motivation. I have been working hard in the last few weeks to be physically and mentally fit for the season and I feel good about my work so far.



'We are definitely going to give it a go this season. All the trophies are up for grabs and you can rest assured we will do all we can to bring as many as we can to the Bridge.'

Essien and co. play Real Madrid on Wednesday in the final of Guinness International Champions Cup and they will certainly look to win that match ahead of an all important season.
