#4. Ghana: Kevin-Prince Boateng’s second marriage ends in divorce
Suspended Ghanaian international soccer player, Kevin-Prince Boateng has announced a divorce from his TV presenter wife Melissa Satta after four years of marriage. Boateng, 33, married Melissa, 34, in 2016 but rumors of their separation have been front-page tabloid news in Italy for over a year. The Monza star took to his social media pages to announce that the couple has decided to terminate their relationship permanently but will remain close because of their son Maddox.
He posted: “After a period of separation, we have decided to terminate our relationship permanently, in full respect of each other’s positions and in complete serenity, while we remain an important reference point for the growth of our son Maddox.”
#5. Liverpool considering selling ‘unhappy’ Salah
Mohamed Salah is unhappy at Liverpool and the Reds are considering cashing in on the Egyptian, according to his former international team-mate Mohamed Aboutrika. Aboutrika says the 28-year-old was particularly frustrated at not being made captain for the recent Champions League tie against FC Midtjylland, though there are apparently other reasons why he is unsettled at Anfield.
“I called Salah about his situation at Liverpool and he is upset, but that would never affect his performance on the field,” Aboutrika told the media. The former Roma and Chelsea forward was expecting to be named captain as the most experienced player in the team, but the armband was instead worn by 22-year-old Trent Alexander-Arnold.
