He revealed, "I talked to Essien about it all. He told me about Ligue 1. It is one of the strongest leagues in Europe, so I see it as a good opportunity for me.
"I will get playing time in Rennes, and probably more than I would get most other places."
Essien is an assistant coach on the staff at FCN.
