Ghana international Derek Boateng  admit the English Premier league is very tough but was quick to add that he is there to face the challenge and leave a good mark there. Boateng who joined the Cottagers on a free transfer in May after being released by Ukrainian side Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk has promise his fans to expect more from him in this year’s season. Even though he has played only one full game for the craven cottage side, he believe the season just started so more is yet to come from him.
Boateng said he is gradually getting used to the premier league and will bouce back very soon. “It’s been a very good experience for me,” Boateng told the club’s website. “Being in the Premier League has been great and training alongside the kind of players we have here at Fulham. I’m getting used to the league and am very excited to be here. It’s a very tough league, but a very good league. Everyone is trying to do their best and every game you play is very tough. The stadium is usually full at every club which shows how much the fans love the football here and I have definitely found the right team and I am so happy to be able to play here.”
The veteran midfielder has had stints in Greece, Israel, Germany and Spain before he joined Ukrainian club FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk where he started brightly but later had a burst-up with Juande Ramos after making his intention of leaving known.
