Charlie Took Essome (born 25 May 1993), known simply as Charlie, is a Cameroonian footballer who plays as a central defender.
Club career
Born in Douala, Charlie moved to Spain in his early teens and joined RCD Mallorca's youth system. While still a junior, he began appearing in senior competitions with the B-side, but only played four games across two Segunda División B seasons.[1]
On 25 August 2012, Charlie made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, coming on as a 77th-minute substitute for Emilio Nsue in a 1–1 draw against Málaga CF.[2][3] On 25 July 2014, he signed with another reserve team, UD Almería B.[4]
On 5 July 2016, Charlie was promoted to the Andalusians' main squad in Segunda División.[5] However, after being deemed surplus to requirements by manager Fernando Soriano, he joined third-tier club Arandina CF on 31 August.[6]
