Boniface’s Stock Rises After Stellar Debut Season
Boniface joined Bayer Leverkusen from Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise just two seasons ago and made an immediate impact. In his debut season, he helped guide the club to a historic domestic double—securing both the Bundesliga title and the DFB Pokal.
Known for his physical presence, link-up play, and clinical finishing, Boniface has quickly become one of the most sought-after young forwards in Europe. His performances have not gone unnoticed, with Premier League clubs, including Newcastle United, reportedly monitoring his situation closely.
Leverkusen Preparing for Life Beyond Boniface?
While Leverkusen are not actively pushing for a sale, their recent transfer moves suggest they are preparing for the possibility. The club has secured the services of young striker Christian Kofane and intends to retain the experienced Patrick Schick as part of their attacking lineup.
This strategic planning could ease the potential transition should Boniface depart, with the €50 million valuation reflecting both his current ability and future potential.
Premier League Links Intensify
Newcastle United is said to be among the clubs considering a summer move for the Nigeria international. The Magpies are reportedly in the market for attacking reinforcements as they look to bolster their squad ahead of next season, and Boniface fits the profile of a physically dominant and versatile forward.
With the transfer window set to open soon, speculation around Boniface's future is likely to intensify, particularly if other Premier League or top European clubs join the race for his signature.
For now, Leverkusen holds firm on its valuation, but the coming weeks could determine whether Boniface remains in Germany or embarks on a new chapter in one of Europe’s elite leagues.
