Nigerian forward Victor Boniface is set to undergo medical tests at German club Bayer Leverkusen today, as the Bundesliga side looks to secure his signature. The deal comes after Bayer Leverkusen reached an agreement with Belgian Pro League club Union St. Gilloise for the transfer of the talented young player.
Renowned transfer expert Patrick Berger has revealed that once the medical checks are completed, Boniface will sign a lucrative five-year contract with Leverkusen. The financial terms of the deal indicate that Union St. Gilloise will receive a transfer fee of €20 million, along with various add-ons.
Boniface’s move to Leverkusen comes just one year after joining Union St. Gilloise from Norwegian club Bodo/Glimt. The 22-year-old caught the attention of Leverkusen officials during last season’s UEFA Europa League clash between the two clubs, impressing with his performances on the field.
In his new venture, Boniface will aim to make a significant impact in the Bundesliga and continue his development as a professional footballer. Leverkusen’s faith in his abilities is evident in their decision to offer him a long-term contract, securing his services for the next five seasons.
This transfer underlines the growing reputation and marketability of young Nigerian talents in the football world. Boniface now joins the ranks of several Nigerian players who have made their mark in top European leagues.
The news of this impending transfer has created excitement among Leverkusen fans and football enthusiasts alike. Leverkusen’s quest to strengthen their squad ahead of the upcoming season demonstrates their ambition to compete at the highest level.
As Boniface prepares to embark on a new chapter in his career, the Nigerian forward has the opportunity to showcase his skills and adapt to the demands of German football. It remains to be seen how he will fare in the ultra-competitive Bundesliga, but the faith shown in him by Leverkusen suggests they believe he has what it takes to excel.
The completion of Boniface’s medical tests and subsequent signing of the five-year deal will signify the official confirmation of his move to Bayer Leverkusen. Football fans will be eager to follow his progress and witness the impact he can make in the Bundesliga.
