Ghana international Kevin Prince Boateng has revealed that he is at Hertha Berlin to complete an unfinished business at the club.

In his first interview following Hus return to the club, he explained the reason for returning to the Berlin-based outfit.

“Hertha BSC is not just any club for me,” he said.

“I’m here to give something back. I’ve been around a lot over the years and learned a lot, but all that, my whole career, I owe to this club. I have never forgotten that Hertha was always in my heart.”

With this move, the African star becomes the club’s second signing after 24-year-old Suat Serdar, and sports director Fredi Bobic expressed his delight with his arrival.

“Kevin-Prince Boateng knows Hertha BSC, the Bundesliga and Berlin,” Bobic said.

“It does not require a long acclimatization period. Prince, with his leadership qualities in the cabin and off the pitch, is a tremendous asset to our team.

“On the pitch, he has proven himself over many years at the highest level. The overall package in this transfer is absolutely right.”

Kevin is born to a Ghanaian father and a German mother in Berlin.

He represented Germany at U19, U20 and U21 levels before switching nationality to play for Ghana.
