Victor Boniface, the striker for the Super Eagles, has been so successful this season that he is currently the second most important player in the Nigerian squad.
Victor Boniface’s transfer market value has skyrocketed to a career-high €40 million from an initial €12 million.
According to the most recent transfermarkt.com report, the 22-year-old striker was one of the Super Eagles players whose prices had increased dramatically.
Remember that during the summer transfer window, Victor Boniface transferred to a big European team, Bayer Leverkusen, from Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, for a transfer fee above €20 million?
August and September’s Player of the Month and Rookie of the Month honors were his due, thanks to his amazing seven goals and three assists in eight Bundesliga games.
With seven goals in eight games, Boniface presently sits third in the Bundesliga’s 2023–2024 goalscorers list, behind only Serhou Guirassy of VfB Stuttgart (14 goals) and Harry Kane of Bayern Munich (9 goals).
After eight games, Leverkusen leads the Bundesliga standings, partly because of the 22-year-old’s outstanding season start.
His exceptional performance contributed to his market worth reaching an all-time high of €40 million. His current ranking as the Super Eagles’ most valuable player is second, behind only €120 million-valued Victor Osimhen of Napoli.
Boniface’s performance has drawn interest from Real Madrid, Newcastle United, and several other elite European teams.
