Kevin Prince-Boateng opens up on why he chose to play for Ghana over Germany

Kevin-Prince Boateng has finally opened up on why he opted to play for Ghana over Germany despite representing the European country.

Boateng represented his birth country, Germany, from the U19 to U21 where he played in the 2005 UEFA European U-19 Football Championship, the 2007 Toulon Tournament in France and the 2009 UEFA European U-21 Football Championship in Sweden.

However, in June 2009, he switched nationality to play for Ghana after informing German authorities he had no interest in playing for them again after receiving his Ghanaian passport in May 2010.

Speaking to Vibe with Five, Boateng said he was destined to play for Germany at the senior level, having represented at the youth levels, but never saw himself there because of his personality.

“I played for Germany to the U-21 level so it was destined I was going to play for the Germany national team but I didn’t see myself there” the former Barcelona and AC Milan forward said. 

“And they didn’t see, talent-wise, no doubt, but character-wise, I wasn’t good for the German team. I didn’t want to go and maybe get the chance to play for the German national team and things go south again” he added.
