Victor Boniface has no interest in joining Manchester United in the coming future, as he remains focused on his task at Bayer Leverkusen.
According to Fichajes, Victor Boniface could decide on his immediate future, which could have a big blow on Manchester United’s hopes. The Nigerian striker is keen to continue with Bayer Leverkusen ahead of the next window, and he might decide to stay at the club regardless of which clubs are showing interest.
Victor Boniface should get equal credit for his performances at Bayer Leverkusen last season during their historic title win. Stars like Florian Wirtz got all the plaudits for their performances, which helped Xabi Alonso’s side go the entire domestic campaign unbeaten. Still, the Nigerian was as important a part of that season.
Boniface’s 31 goals in 34 games were important for Leverkusen, and his presence in front of the goal has attracted big interest from top teams. Chelsea is scouting him extensively, and their scouts have urged them to make a move in 2025.
Manchester United are also considering a move, as the club are eager to bring in a new striker. The arrival of Ruben Amorim will see the Red Devils make renewed plans on new transfers that involve a new punchy centre-forward, much like the one he had at Sporting CP in Viktor Gyokeres.
Manchester United are indeed interested in Gyokeres, although they understand the difficulties of signing the striker ahead of future windows. Hence, they are considering Christopher Nkunku and even Boniface as potential alternatives to the Swede, although they could be dealt a blow in the chase for the Nigerian.
Boniface is set to reject Manchester United
Boniface is not bothered by the interest coming in from other clubs ahead of the January window and will reject all overtures in the coming period. The 23-year-old attacker is focused on his task at Leverkusen and wants to continue under Alonso.
Next summer, when things could change for the club, Alonso, and himself, the 23-year-old attacker could reevaluate his stance before taking a call on his future. Hence, Manchester United will be dealt a blow ahead of January if they are to pursue Boniface’s signature.
