His days of being a great player is over- Germany legend Lothar Matthaus Kevin Prince-Boateng

Published on: 05 October 2021

Germany and Bayern Munich legend Lothar Matthaus has criticized Hertha Berlin's decision to bring back Ghana forward Kevin Prince-Boateng. 

The 34-year-old rejoined his boyhood club after 20 years away from the capital based club, but his return has not yielded in positive results as the Hertha struggles in the Bundesliga.

Lothar Matthaus is yet to understand the role of the experienced forward but insists Sporting Director Fredi Bobic is just a fan of the Ghanaian since their days at Frankfurt.

"I have not yet understood what is his role in the club: whether a guide on the pitch or in the locker room for the coach - said the former Inter midfielder to SkySport Deutschland.

"Bobic  has been very attached to him since the days of Eintracht Frankfurt when Boateng was still a great player, albeit a difficult character. But those times are over." 

Kevin Prince-Boateng is yet to score or provide an assist in five Bundesliga matches this season.
