Kevin Prince Boateng announced his presence in the Turkish Super Lig as he climbed off the bench to score in Besiktas victory against Gaziantep.

The Ghana forward climbed off the bench to power the home side to a 3-0 win at the Vodafone Arena on Saturday.

After failing to find the back of the net in the first 45th minute, Besiktas threw the nomadic Ghanaian into the fray for Adam Ljajic.

Burak Yilmaz broke the deadlock from the penalty spot in the 52nd minute before Boateng made it 2-0 18 minutes later with a close-range finish, the assist coming from Gokhan Gonul.

A last gasp strike from Dutch forward Jermain Lens saw Besiktas run out three-nil winners.

Prince took to his official Twitter handle to express his joy for opening his goalscoring account on his debut and the win for Besiktas.

Meanwhile, Rahman Chibsah warmed the bench for Gaziantep in his side’s heavy pounding while Aziz Tetteh missed out on the game completely.

Boateng joined the Turkish club from Fiorentina on loan in the winter transfer.
