Bayer Leverkusen is set to reward Nigerian striker Victor Boniface with an upgraded contract following his exceptional form in the Bundesliga.
Boniface, who joined the German outfit in 2023, currently has a deal running until 2028. However, the club is reportedly in advanced talks to extend his stay until 2029, sweetening the package to reflect his growing influence and contributions to the team’s success.
The Super Eagles star has emerged as a key player this season, dazzling fans and critics alike with his goal-scoring prowess and versatility on the pitch. His impressive performances have also drawn interest from major European clubs, including Premier League giants Manchester United.
Despite this external attention, Bayer Leverkusen is determined to secure the 23-year-old’s future, underscoring their intent to build around him with a revised contract featuring improved terms.
This move aligns with Leverkusen’s broader strategy of retaining top talent to bolster their domestic and international ambitions, ensuring they remain competitive in future campaigns. Boniface’s rise not only cements his place among the Bundesliga’s elite but also reflects the growing impact of Nigerian players on European football.
