Kevin-Prince Boateng bids farewell to Barcelona: I wanted to give something more, but I did my best Barcelona Leaves after loan expired

Kevin-Prince Boateng has left a goodbye message to Barcelona and their fans after officially leaving the club.

The Ghanaian's six-month loan from Sassuolo expired on July 1 and he dismissed rumours that he would join the Blaugrana on a permanent deal.

"Today ends one of the most exciting experiences of my career," Boateng wrote on Instagram.

"I thank every person who made his possible. I thank my teammates who made me feel at home from day one, champions and great people.

"A special thought goes to all the fans: I will always carry you in my heart. I wanted to give something more, but I did my best in every minute of training and game that was given to me to honour this fantastic shirt!"
