The Super Eagles and Leverkusen striker Boniface has been making waves with his remarkable performances, catching the attention of top clubs across Europe.
At just 23 years old, he has been a force to reckon with in the Bundesliga, showcasing his talent with an impressive track record.
His electrifying form under Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen side saw him score ten goals and provide eight assists in fifteen starts, earning him accolades such as the Rookie of the Month award four times consecutively but an unfortunate injury sidelined him for most of the campaign.
Sports Buddy also reported Victor Boniface’s likely return date as revealed by Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso.
Boniface on Napoli’s radar
Despite his setback, the Bayer Leverkusen star remains a hot prospect in the transfer market, with speculations linking him to clubs like Arsenal.
According to reports, Leverkusen is reluctant to part ways with the young striker, but they could entertain offers around €55m for his services.
This figure reflects the club’s recognition of Boniface’s potential and the impact he has made in his debut season.
On the other hand, Napoli is keeping a close watch on Bayer Leverkusen striker, considering him as a potential replacement for Osimhen, who has also been linked with several top clubs including Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain, as reported by the Mirror.
Italian transfer expert Niccolò Ceccarini unveiled Napoli’s list of targets, including the Super Eagles striker, as potential replacements for Osimhen. Despite the competition, Napoli sees Boniface as a viable option to bolster their attacking lineup.
However, the likelihood of the forward making a move to Napoli seems slim, especially with Xabi Alonso committing to another season with Leverkusen.
Additionally, Leverkusen’s secured UEFA Champions League spot for the 2024/2025 season provides Boniface with ample opportunity to continue his development at the club.
