Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface could be set to leave Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen, with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr reportedly making a bid for his signature before the January transfer window closes.
Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the Nigerian international has caught the attention of Al Nassr, who are eager to strengthen their attacking options as the Saudi Professional League heats up. Romano further revealed that negotiations between Al Nassr and Bayer Leverkusen are already underway for the 24-year-old striker.
This potential transfer is seen as a move to fill the gap left by Anderson Talisca, who departed Al Nassr for Fenerbahce earlier in January. Should the deal materialize, Boniface would team up with global stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane, creating a formidable attacking trio for the Saudi side.
Boniface has been in fine form this season, scoring eight goals in 15 matches for Bayer Leverkusen before being sidelined by an injury in mid-November 2024. His performances have drawn widespread admiration, making him a sought-after talent in the transfer market.
Al Nassr is also reportedly exploring the possibility of signing Aston Villa’s backup striker, Jhon Duran. However, Aston Villa remains firm that the Colombian international is not for sale, with just four days left in the current transfer window.
