According to Sky Germany, Bayer Leverkusen are open to letting Victor Boniface leave this month with clubs from Saudi Arabia and the Premier League showing interest.
After the failed attempt to bring Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez to Saudi Arabia, several clubs are said to be interested in Boniface as the second option if they cannot convince Nunez to move before deadline day.
Leverkusen are aware of the interest in Boniface from the Arabian peninsula and England. Die Werkself does not consider Boniface unsellable but will demand €50m from the buying club.
The Nigerian is currently on the way back from a thigh injury that he picked up during the November international break.
The 24-year-old is back in training for Bayer Leverkusen after spending almost two months on the sidelines with a thigh injury.
The German champions shared a picture of the player working out on the grass on Monday with the caption, “Look who’s back.”
Boniface has been injured since November 2024, missing the club’s last 12 matches in all competitions due to a thigh problem.
He was to resume training earlier this year but he had to wait a little longer after suffering a setback.
Boniface was in great form before his injury however since then, he has lost his place to Patrik Schick who is looking back to his best.
The injuries to Amine Adli and Martin Terrier may make Leverkusen reluctant to sell Boniface unless they have several replacements lined up.
