The ambassadors for the ten host cities in Germany have announced on Saturday at the DFB campus in Frankfurt am Main. "We are very happy that we were able to win Kevin-Prince Boateng as an ambassador," said sports senator Iris Spranger.

It is the cornerstone of my current career." At the 2021 European Football Championship, Boateng worked as a pundit for ARD until he signed a contract with Hertha BSC.
