#1 Experience
The signing of Kevin-Prince Boateng from Sassualo will help Ernesto Valverde and Barcelona immensely this season due to a number of factors and one of these crucial factors is his experience.
The attacker has gathered a lot of experience during his career, having represented several clubs across several leagues in Europe including the likes of Hertha Berlin, Borussia Dortmund, Portsmouth, AC Milan, Tottenham Hotspur, Schalke 04, to mention just a few.
It comes as a huge gain for Barcelona as the attacker is already familiar with Spanish football, having lined up for La Liga rivals La Palmas at one stage of his career. As a result, Boateng will not face the problem of adapting to the division while the experience he gathered during his time in other divisions will help the Catalan giants in the UEFA Champions League.
