I will be joining Cologne in January after the winter break," Boateng told Ghanasoccernet."We all know that Cologne is one of the best teams in Germany and going to the Bundesliga will further enchance my career."Of all the offer the one from Cologne was most attractive because it will further my career in many areas."Spanish side Getafe and Belgian club Standard Liege were reported to have made bids which were also attractive.Boateng once touted as Ghana's best hope for the future fell off the radar in Greece before reviving his career in Sweden and Israel.But fans of his Israeli club Beitar Jerusalem recently racially abused him which might have forced his desire to leave the league.
