Boateng, now with Besiktas has been in fine form this season and it has led to calls for him to make a return tonthe senior National team.
As a Ghanaian international, he represemted Ghana at 2 world cups, in 2010 and 2014.
However, after a fallout with Black Stars coach, Kwesi Appiah at the Brazil 2014 world cup, Kevin was sacked from camp for indiscipline and has since not featured for the senior national team.
Coach CK Akunnor named the latest Black Stars squad for their AFCON 2021 qualifying double header against Sudan later this month. The Stars sit top of their group with six points after 2 wins from 2.
