Head coach of Persib Bandung, Djadjang Nurdjaman says he wants Michael Essien to be 100% fit with time.

The Ghana international joined the Indonesian giants last month, after he parted ways with Panathinaikos last year.

Despite getting a goal on his debut to hit the ground, his coach thinks the Ghanaian midfielder and his former Chelsea teammate Carlton Cole need some training sessions to get to their best.

"Cole and Essien might not be 100 percent, but I think there will be progress," said Djadjang
