Boateng Boards Flight To Ghana

....Will Arrive In Accra Tonight

Kevin-Prince Boateng has boarded a flight to Ghana on Monday morning to join the Black Stars camp for Friday's crucial 2014 World Cup qualifier.

The 26-year-old tweeted a picture while seated in the flight to confirm his expected arrival in Accra on Monday evening.

The versatile midfielder is travelling from Germany since he has joined Schalke 04 from Italian giants AC Milan.

He made an impressive debut for the Royal Blues on Saturday as they beat Bayern Leverkusen 2-0 in the German top flight.

Boateng is making a return to the Black Stars after a two-year absence when he decided to quit international football prematurely.

He has however written to the Ghana FA to rescind his decision - making himself available for national team selection and has been included in Ghana's squad for the deciding 2014 World Cup qualifier against Zambia on Friday.
