Kevin Boateng's loyalty questioned after leaving club prematurely

Kevin-Boateng's decision to support Real Madrid after their 3-1 win over rivals Barcelona in the Copa Del Rey raised doubts about his loyalty to Las Palmas - leading to his abrupt exit, GHANAsoccernet.com source says.

The maverick forward took to twitter to troll the Blaugrana and showered praises on Portugal ace Cristiano Ronaldo for his stunner.

While showing his appreciation for Cristiano Ronaldo's goal, Boateng pondered how much Barcelona were missing a certain 222 million euro man.

The Ghanaian also questioned Real Madrid's lack of fortune when Luis Suarez won a penalty for tumbling over Keylor Navas.

The action of the Ghanaian has been interpreted as showing less loyalty to his club which appears to have angered the club's top hierarchy.

The 30-year-old terminated his contract with Spanish La Liga side Las Palmas on Wednesday, days to the start of the season.

Boateng cited personal reasons for severing ties with the La UD.

He had a successful debut season with Las Palmas and was the club's top scorer with 10 goals.
