Victor Boniface, Bayer Leverkusen’s star, is facing a spell on the sidelines due to a thigh injury sustained while on international duty with Nigeria.
Cyber Reporters gathered that Boniface picked up the injury during Nigeria’s 2-1 home defeat to Rwanda on Monday night, where he played for 87 minutes.
As a result, Boniface missed training on Thursday, sparking concerns about his availability for Leverkusen’s upcoming Bundesliga clash against Heidenheim this weekend.
This latest setback is a blow to the 23-year-old, who has already experienced a significant injury layoff last season due to an adductor injury that required surgery.
Boniface has been in impressive form this season, scoring eight goals in 15 appearances across all competitions for Bayer Leverkusen.
His absence will likely be felt by the team, and fans will be eager to see how quickly he can recover and return to action.
