Barcelona have confirmed the signing of Kevin-Prince Boateng from Italian side Sassuolo. The 31-year old, who made the transfer on a deal of €8million with an option to buy, will be presented on Tuesday morning.
A statement on the club’s official website reads:
“Kevin-Prince Boateng is a player who will surely adapt quickly to the team. With experience of playing in four of the biggest leagues in Europe, the Premier League, the Bundesliga, Serie A and La Liga, he is a man who has scored goals wherever he has been.
“Furthermore, Boateng is a player who versatile to a fault. During his time with Las Palmas with Quique Setién as coach he played as an out and out striker, a typical number ‘9’. However, he is also able to play further back as he did at AC Milan, scoring twice against Barça in his time with the Rossoneri.
“His ability to bring people into the game means he is excellent at playing behind the main striker.”
