He is the current head coach of KRL FC in the Pakistan Premier League.
Essa is one of the most well known faces in Pakistani football, due to his regular goal scoring at the international level.
He was discovered by then Pakistan youth team and under-23 manager John Layton back in early 1999, and found his way into the Pakistan national football team soon enough, receiving his first cap in 2001.
Born in the city of Chaman in Pakistan's Balochistan province, he played in the Afghan Football Club Chaman youth team before signing for PTCL FC, with whom he won the old PFF President's Cup in 2003.

In the second season of Pakistan Premier League season in 2005, he returned to his home town club Afghan FC Chaman, with his goals helping them to finish fourth in the table.
In June 2005, Essa was offered a playing contract from major Indian football team East Bengal FC after his stellar performance in the international friendly series against India, but it seemingly failed to materialise after the club decided to retain the striker Bhaichung Bhutia for the next season following the wages demands of Essa.
The following season, he transferred to departmental side WAPDA, but could not help them retain their Pakistan Premier League title; finishing second to Pakistan Army.
Essa scored his first senior international goal in a free-kick against India, in the first match of the 2005 Pakistan-India friendly series at the Ayub National Stadium in Quetta to tie the game 1–1 with minutes to go before the final whistle.
He scored again in the 3–0 win against India at the Punjab Stadium in Lahore.
In 2006, he led the Pakistan under 23 side at the 2006 South Asian Games, winning another gold medal.
After advancing from the group stages, Essa's strike against Nepal led Pakistan to the final against Sri Lanka, which ended in a victory for the Green Shirts thanks to a goal by Adeel Ahmed in the half time.

On 13 August 2007, Essa was awarded the Salaam Pakistan Award alongside tennis star Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi and female squash player Maria Toorpakai for their contributions to sport by the President of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf.
He retained his captaincy for the 2008 AFC Challenge Cup qualification campaign.
Despite a 2–0 win against Chinese Taipei in the first match, Pakistan lost 7–1 to Sri Lanka, which made Pakistan's 9–2 demolition of Guam meaningless as they finished behind on points to Sri Lanka, thus failing to qualify for the main round.
