Jerome Boateng has found himself in the eye of the storm, but not for a matter related to football. The Salernitana defender has been accused of abusing women for years by none other than his mother. A significant statement from the woman who, as reported by Der Spiegel, sent a letter to a German lawyer after the suicide of the former partner. The text dates back to 2021, the very year of the twenty-five-year-old's disappearance, and could also reopen the case that had been opened against the German, brother of Kevin-Prince Boateng, former Milan, Sassuolo, and Fiorentina player.

«My son has been abusing women for years»

The German newspaper only published an excerpt of what would be the words of Boateng's mother, Martina, who decided to accuse her own son. «He has been abusing women both mentally and physically for years». A significant accusation since the footballer is still at the center of a judicial proceeding by the German authorities who are investigating the death of Kadia Lenhardt, the footballer's former partner who was found dead in an apartment in Berlin.

«Now Kasia has committed suicide - the mother continues - and he still does not want to take responsibility for his behavior». At the time of the incident, the Prosecution initially investigated the former Bayern Munich player for suspected intentional personal injury, but then archived the case due to lack of evidence.

The precedents

Before Lenhardt's death, Boateng had always been in the storm for an assault that occurred in 2018 against his former partner and mother of his children. During a family vacation in the Caribbean, the defender allegedly assaulted Sherin Senler with punches and bites. For this, the footballer was convicted and fined about 1.8 million euros, but then the Bavarian Supreme Court annulled everything.
