Kocaelispor are being linked with a move for FC Dinamo centre-back Kennedy Boateng, with the Togolese-Ghanaian defender rumoured to be available amid uncertainty over his contract situation in Romania.

The 29-year-old, who is listed with a market value of €1.20m, is reportedly on the radar of the Turkish Süper Lig side as they assess defensive options ahead of the next transfer window. Transfer data dated 4 May 2026 places Boateng as a potential outgoing from Dinamo, though the probability of the move is currently marked only as “?”, underlining the speculative nature of the talks.

Boateng, born on 29 November 1996 in Tamale, stands at 1.91m and operates primarily as a right-footed centre-back. He wears the number 4 shirt for Dinamo and is registered in Romania’s SuperLiga. With no contract expiry date listed for his current deal, there is the possibility he could move on a free agent basis if his agreement with Dinamo has expired or is close to running down, a factor that would make a transfer financially attractive for Kocaelispor.

The defender holds dual nationality, representing both Togo and Ghana in his personal profile, and is recorded as being attached to FC Dinamo 1948 at national-team level in the available data. Recent statistical updates on his performances are not provided in the latest scrape, and no specific probability has been assigned beyond the “?” marker on the reported move.

Boateng’s combination of height, experience in European competition and relatively modest valuation could appeal to Kocaelispor as they look to strengthen their back line. Should the transfer materialise, a switch from Romania’s SuperLiga to the Süper Lig would offer Boateng a new platform and could prove an important next step in shaping the trajectory of his career.
