Ghanaian midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng is completely devoted to tattoos.

The ex-Milan and Barcelona midfielder has inked over 30 tattoos spread across his body. The attacking midfielder has a map of Africa on his left bicep which is a way of paying tribute to his African heritage. There is a spider web etched over his left knee, depicting his recurring knee injury.

The 34-years-old also has tattooed a lion on his right foot representing his brave and dominant attitude, diamonds on his neck, and the phrase "Love vs Pain" on his chest.

Andre Ayew

Ayew's tattoos are more personal and symbolic with inks and portraits of his mother’s name on his body. The Ghana captain has also shown massive love to his daughter, inking her name, Inaya, on his wrist.
