🇻🇳TO VIETNAM – HAPPY REUNIFICATION DAY & LABOUR DAY 🇻🇳 In football, I’ve learned one thing: the greatest victories come after the toughest battles. Vietnam understands this truth better than anyone. 🇻🇳April 30th – You fought for freedom and won. 🇻🇳May 1st – You honor the people who build this nation every day. On the field, I played with champions. But off the field, I stand with a nation of champions – the Vietnamese people. As the Oficial Brand Ambassador of Rikvip, I am committed to the values that Vietnam holds dear: teamwork, fair play, and never giving up. Your resilience inspires me. Your spirit reminds me why I love this beautiful game. Happy Reunification Day & Labour Day, Vietnam! 🙏 Together, we win. 🏆 Michael Essien Rikvip Ambassador #Rikvip #MichaelEssien #BrandAmbassador #ChampionMindset #FootballPassion

Every great victory starts with a strong start, on and off the football field. @MichaelEssien reminds us that reading, maths & social-emotional skills are critical for future learning and prosperity. African leaders must invest in foundational skills. #AFCON

Did you hear that? ⚡️ A sound like that breaks the action and announces what’s next. Wild how athletes from different places, different games, different journeys can feel the same energy at the same time. Whatever it is has a way of pulling us together. 🌍 🔥 Keep your eyes open. Don’t blink. It’s coming. #Sporty

Happy New Year #2026🥂🎉🎊♥️

Merry Christmas to you all 🎄🎅♥️

I signed an open letter to African leaders with other footballers because Africa deserves a future where every child is safe from polio. This is our moment. Let's #KickOutPolio #AFCON2025 @sebastien.haller @keitanabydeco @ondoa1 @rodolfo_bodipo @brunoecuelemanga @GPEI

Thanks alot for the Birthday wishes. One Love Still ❤️

Michael Essien was a different breed altogether 🔥: ▪️ José Mourinho 🗣️ "If I could have 11 Essiens, I’d win everything. He was incredible — the ultimate professional." ▪️ Didier Drogba 🗣️ "There was no other midfielder like Michael. His power, his energy, his heart — unbelievable." ▪️ John Terry 🗣️ "If I could take one player into a battle, it was Essien. He never gave up. A warrior." ▪️ Petr Čech 🗣️ "He could play right-back, centre-back, midfield, anywhere. And he’d be world-class in every role." ▪️ Cesc Fàbregas 🗣️ "He covered every blade of grass. You felt like you were playing against two players, not one." ▪️ Steven Gerrard 🗣️ "Essien was a nightmare to play against. Strong, quick, intelligent — a complete midfielder." ▪️ Gary Neville 🗣️ "One of the strongest players I’ve ever faced. He made Chelsea’s midfield almost unbeatable."

It’s Africa’s biggest match. Join us and #KickOutPolio from Africa and the world. #AFCON2025 @EndPolioNow
