Kevin Prince Boateng’s big lie when he was signed by Barcelona
Kevin Prince Boateng, withdrawn from professional football since last summer, has confessed to lying when he signed for Barcelona. His justification for betraying himself was that he did so “in order to be able to play”.
It never went unnoticed. For the quality, for the family controversies, for the hairstyles… The Ghanaian striker said in a podcast hosted by fellow retired footballer Rio Ferdinand that he was forced to tell “one of the biggest lies of my life” when he arrived at Barca.
