In September 2015, Sarpong moved to National League North club Boston United on a three-month loan.[7]

He made his debut as a substitute in a 2–1 defeat to Chorley, but was ruled out for over a month in his second appearance for the club. His final appearance came in a 2–1 win over Alfreton Town before a return to his parent club.[8]
