Levante agree sale of striker Emmanuel Boateng to Dalian Yifang for €11m

According to reports in Spain, Levante are close to selling Ghanaian forward Emmanuel Boateng to Chinese Super League club Dalian Yifang.

The 22-year-old was signed from Portuguese outfit Moireirense in the summer of 2017 but has struggled for form this season, netting just once in 16 La Liga appearances.

Superdeporte say the forward will move to the Far East in a deal worth €11m, which will be the second highest transfer in Levante’s history following Jefferson Lerma’s €30m move to Bournemouth this summer.

Boateng netted a hat-trick in a memorable 5-4 victory at home to Barcelona last May but is set to undergo a medical in Madrid for a move away on Monday.
