Boniface Wants to Leave in January as Leverkusen Get Two Transfer Enquiries
Victor Boniface wants to leave Bayer Leverkusen in the January transfer window, and two clubs have already asked about signing the Nigerian striker.
Reports in the German media suggest that Leverkusen are ready to help the 25-year-old leave and might agree to another loan deal to solve his difficult situation.
Boniface is under contract until June 2028, but he wants a new start because he is not getting much playing time under Carles Martínez. With real interest from other clubs, he could leave this winter.
Boniface has struggled to regain form at Leverkusen after injuries cut short his loan at Werder Bremen last season.
The Nigerian has struggled to fit into Martínez’s plans and is now behind Patrik Schick and Christian Kofane in attack.

He has had few chances to play, and things worsened when Die Werkself left him out of their Europa League squad.
This situation has been building for weeks. In October, Sky reported that Boniface told his representatives he wanted to leave because he was frustrated by his lack of regular playing time.
Boniface played a key role in Leverkusen’s historic 2023/24 Bundesliga title win, so his drop in status has been surprising.
That season, Boniface scored 21 goals in all competitions and became one of Germany’s top forwards.
However, repeated injuries have slowed him down, and with Schick playing well and Kofane stepping up, it has become harder for him to return to the starting lineup.
