This Is Why KP Boateng Is Failing To Impress At Barcelona

According to Catalunya Ràdio, Kevin-Prince Boateng is suffering from pain in his knee, that, while not enough to stop him from playing, does affect him.

According to the report, the Ghanaian forward is not fit to play “four or five games one after the other” due to the injury.

Boateng joined the Catalan club on from Sassuolo in after Munir El Haddadi’s departure.

The former AC Milan star made his debut in a 2-0 loss to Sevilla in the Copa del Rey.

However, he was taken off in the second half and has not featured since.

The reason could be purely a technical decision by the manager, or it could be affected by his knee problems.

Barcelona knew about this issue, which has been described as a chronic condition.

The report says it is normal for a 32-year-old player to suffer from pain, and be accustomed to playing through it regardless.

The forward was never meant to play many minutes for the Catalans, as he arrived as an emergency loan signing.
