Help me put out the fire- Boateng on racism

Published on: 25 June 2020

Besiktas midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng has urged everyone to help him in the fight against racism in the world.

In the past few weeks, the world has been talking about the death of George Floyd, a black American. The talks have sparked a movement against racism in America and everywhere in the world.

Kevin-Prince Boateng has been strongly part of the movement and made his intentions known on the subject. 

“I cried when I watched the George Floyd video. I had to watch 5 times to understand what happened. He knew he would die at that moment," he wrote on The Players Tribune. 

"I'm not afraid of anything. Help me to put out this fire. Let's jump on the train that will change the world together.”

Boateng has made seven appearances for Besiktas this season.
