Muhammad Essa Biography

Muhammad Essa is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on November 20, 1983 in Chaman, Balochistan, Pakistan, Pakistan. Muhammad Essa Khan (Urdu/Pashto mHmdysykhn; born 20 November 1983) was a former Pakistani footballer. He is currently the assistant coach of Pakistan’s national football team and K-Electric F.C. He was the first captain of Pakistan’s national football team. Because of his excellent ball holding and passing skills, he was often used as a playmaker to support a striker or as a true centre forward. He was a left- footed specialist in free-kick. Because of his consistent goal scoring at international levels, Essa is one the most prominent faces in Pakistani football.

The most memorable moment for Essa was when he scored a free kick against India in the opening match of the 2005 Pakistan-India friendly Series, at the Ayub Natal Stadium, Quetta. It tied the game 1-1 just minutes before the whistle. Essa won the last game 3-0. He was then offered a contract by the East Bengal Club’s major Indian football team, but the PFF declined it, much to the dismay of many Pakistani football fans.

Essa played in the Geo Super Football League for Quetta Zorawar as captain with the club coming second in the league round and losing semi-finalists in the knock-out round of the tournament, although he was awarded the SFL 2007 Player of the Tournament trophy. The striker was awarded the ‘Salaam Pakistan Award’ alongside tennis star Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi and female squash player Maria Toor Pakay for their contributions to sport by the President of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf on 13 August 2007. He captained Pakistan to a surprise nil-nil draw against Iraq in Syria in the second leg of the World Cup 2010 qualifiers, but were knocked out due to a 7–0 aggregate loss.

In 2009, he opened an academy at his home town in Chaman, called the Essa Khan Academy.

He returned to Afghan Club Chaman in 2004 to help them survive relegation. He transferred to WAPDA FC the following season but was unable to help them retain their PPL title. They finished second to Pakistan Army FC. He captained Pakistan to another SAF Games medal in 2006. After the Games, he returned to Pakistan and helped them finish 3rd during the 2006-07 season.
