From Wikipeidia:
A player with dual German-Ghanaian nationality, Boateng is a central defender.[1] He has a powerful physique and is versatile enough to play any full back position. He started his career with the youth team of Tennis Borussia Berlin and currently plays for Hamburger SV.
Boateng was with Hertha BSC from 1 July 2002 when he was 13 years old, to 22 August 2007. After emerging from the youth team set-up, he played for the reserves for one season, before winning a call-up to the first team squad on 31 January 2007. He made his debut against Hannover 96 in the AWD-Arena, during week 19[2] of the 2006–07 Bundesliga season. He then became a first team regular, despite being barely 18 years of age.
Boateng has played several times for the German U-16, U-17 and U-19 national teams. On 5 July 2007 he was called up to the German under-19 squad by coach Frank Engel[3] for the 2007 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship held in Austria, from 16 July until 27 July.[4]
Boateng was linked with a move to Hamburger SV in the summer of 2007.[5] Because of this, according to the German media, Boateng did not want to sign a five year professional contract with Hertha.[6][7] He moved to Hamburger SV on 22 August 2007 for a fee said to be around €1.1 million.[8]
