Ghana midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng was featured on the frontpage of this week's FIFA Weekly magazine with an exclusive interview with the Schalke utility player.
This means Boateng has risen to join the league of top players and officials to have been featured on the frontpage of the respected magazine.
