Although Kevin Prince Boateng's career might be better remembered as one of unfulfilled potential, the Ghanaian's goal for Las Palmas against Valencia on Monday night put him in a highly exclusive club of players to have scored in the four major leagues in Europe.

Six, including Boateng, have managed at least one goal in LaLiga, the Premier League, the Bundesliga and Serie A, but can you remember all of them?

Gheorghe Popescu

The first Romanian on the list and the only one of the six to win a title in Spain, Popescu was part of the Barcelona side that lifted the Copa del Rey in 1997. However, prior to his move to the Camp Nou, Gica had been playing for Tottenham Hotspur and after departing the Catalan giants, Popescu had brief spells with Lecce and Hannover 96. The former Romanian international ended his career in Germany and with a single goal in the Bundesliga, earned his place on this list.

Florin Raducioiu

Another Romanian, Florin Raducioiu burst into the Dinamo Bucuresti side as a teenager and it wasn't long before Bari brought him to Serie A. The striker went on to lift the league title and the Champions League with AC Milan before moving to Espanyol. Transfers to West Ham United and VfB Stuttgart followed as he neared retirement but Raducioiu's 12 appearances for Monaco enabled him to notch a goal in Ligue 1 also.

Jon Dahl Tomasson

A prolific goal scorer at most clubs he played for, Danish striker Jon Dahl Tomasson proved to be something of a flop after his move to Newcastle United but it paved the way for successful spells with AC Milan, VfB Stuttgart and Villarreal.

Pierre Womé

A powerful full-back with a thunderous left foot shot, Pierre Wome is still playing in his native Cameroon but has enjoyed a well-travelled career in European football. Goals from spells with Bologna, Fulham, Espanyol and Werder Bremen earned him his spot before he returned to Africa in 2012.

Obafemi Martins

One of the most exciting teenagers in Europe when he exploded into the Inter side in 2001, Obafemi Martins never quite fulfilled his early promise. After 28 goals for the Nerazzurri, Martins moved to Newcastle United and as his career has taken him to all corners of the globe, the Nigerian has notched goals for VfL Wolfsburg and Levante.

Kevin-Prince Boateng

The newest name to the list, Boateng's debut goal for Las Palmas adds to his strikes for Hertha Berlin, Tottenham Hotspur and AC Milan. The 29-year-old also scored for Schalke and Portsmouth in addition to two international goals for Ghana.
