In case you didn’t know…
In a surprising turn of events, Barcelona signed Boateng on loan from Italian side Sassuolo in January. Since his arrival at the Camp Nou, Boateng has featured in three matches under Ernesto Valverde, which includes two starts in LaLiga.
Boateng has always been talented, but has somehow fell short of expectations. After playing in the Premier League for Tottenham and Portsmouth, Boateng left the league in 2010. The Ghanaian had short stints at Milan, Schalke, Las Palmas and Eintracht Frankfurt, and now finally, Barcelona.
Barcelona are well on course for another historic treble. The Catalan giants have already secured their 8th LaLiga title in the last 11 years and remain favourites to win the Copa Del Rey and the Champions League. Boateng can be a part of history if he wins a treble with the Blaugrana.
The 32-year-old is expected to return to his old club after the loan spell ends at Barcelona.
The heart of the matter
Boateng revealed that he regrets the decisions he made during his career, and believes he could have been a starter for Barcelona, or featured for a club like Real Madrid and Manchester United for 10 years.
Speaking to DAZN, Boateng said:
What’s next?
After having already secured the league title, Barcelona will focus on the Champions League where they face Liverpool twice in the span of 10 days.
Barcelona will host Liverpool on Wednesday night, and although Boateng is not expected to start, it remains to be seen whether Valverde uses him as a substitute.
