Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface is set to join Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr after Bayer Leverkusen agreed to a permanent transfer for the 24-year-old.

According to Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenburg, the deal is worth over €60 million, with a verbal agreement already in place. Boniface will earn a staggering €15 million per season (approximately N23.805 billion) and has already completed his medicals with the club.

The move is expected to strengthen Al Nassr’s attack, adding Boniface’s pace, power, and finishing ability to their frontline. At 24, the Nigerian forward is entering his prime, and the switch to Saudi Arabia could be a defining moment in his career.

Leverkusen will be disappointed to lose Boniface, who was instrumental in their historic unbeaten Bundesliga title-winning campaign in 2023/24. His contributions on and off the pitch made him a fan favorite at the club.
