Kevin-Prince Boateng Hails 'Incredible' Barcelona Move

Kevin-Prince Boateng has said it is "an incredible feeling" to have secured a move to Barcelona despite acknowledging his awareness that he will not be a starter at the club.

The Blaugrana have signed him on loan from Sassuolo for the rest of the season to act as a back-up to striker Luis Suarez.

The Camp Nou giants have an option to sign him permanently for £7.1 million in the summer, and Boateng, 31, said at his presentation on Tuesday that he is keen to stay at Barca for a number of years, per Marca:

"This is a test and I know I haven't arrived as a starter, but I want to play well and stay for many years, that's my goal.
