COURT ORDERS SALE OF TWO MANSIONS AT EAST LEGON AND TRASSACO OWNED BY GHANAIAN EX-FOOTBALLER, MICHAEL ESSIEN
Two mansions owned by former Ghana midfielder Micheal Essien are reportedly set to be auctioned following an order by an Accra High Court. The Daily Guide reports that the sale of the properties was ordered by the Deputy Sheriff, High Court (Commercial Division), on June 12, 2024.
The report suggests Essien’s mansions are located at Stephen Quarshie Crescent, East Legon and Trassaco, with one of the properties said to be worth almost $30 million.
It is unclear what has led to the auction of the ex-footballer’s mansions and whether it has anything to do with a legal battle.
Essien started his professional career in the Ghana Premier League before securing a move to French club Lyon via fellow Ligue 1 side Bastia.
The 41-year-old became Chelsea’s record signing when the club forked out £24.4 million to price him away from Lyon in 2005.

The former Ghana midfielder also had stints with Real Madrid and AC Milan before calling time on his career after a brief spell with Azerbaijani side Sabail FK.
