Charlie Took Essome (born 25 May 1993), known simply as Charlie, is a Cameroonian footballer who plays for Spanish club Arandina CF as a central defender.

Club career

Born in Douala, Charlie moved to Spain in his early teens, joining RCD Mallorca's youth system. Still a junior he began appearing in senior competitions with the B-side, but played only four games in two third division seasons combined.[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 for 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 suplus to requirements by manager Fernando Soriano, he signed for Arandina CF on 31 August.[6]
