"Dear Sportschau, Thank you for the great experience! Thank you to the wonderful people I got to know at your place and for the fun I had with you! I really felt at home with you and would love to come back," wrote the 2010 Ghana World Cup star.
Prince-Boateng's last game as a pundit was for the game between Germany and England, a game the Three Lions won to progress to the next stage.
Having played for the German youth teams before representing Ghana at the senior level, Boateng blamed the three-time European champions poor defending for their early exit.
"I would not dwell too much on the wasted opportunities ahead, but on defense. Yes, today and in the last few games behind, we played really badly and made many mistakes," said the forward on ARD.
