Victor Boniface is staying put, at least for now.
The Nigerian striker, currently enjoying his vacation, has made no moves to leave Bayer Leverkusen, even as the club considers cashing in on him for €50 million.
The 24-year-old is under contract until 2028, and despite chatter about a potential exit, his agent Emefie Aneke Atta has poured cold water on any imminent transfer talk.
“There’s a new coach, a new setup, but still a very good team that’s back in the Champions League. Victor and I have never discussed a transfer. He’s on vacation now, will train hard during his vacation, and then return for preseason,” said Atta.
Boniface started last season brightly with six goals in ten games before a muscle injury slowed him down. He added only two more Bundesliga goals after returning.
“We haven’t spoken to any other club. At the moment, there are no thoughts of leaving Leverkusen. Of course, you never know in football, but Victor loves playing for Leverkusen.” Atta added.
