Union Berlin interested in their Europa League tormentor Victor Boniface | OneFootball

According to Voetbalkrant, Union Berlin are interested in signing Union St Gilloise 22-year-old Nigerian striker Victor Boniface. During their recent clash in the Europa League Boniface tormented the German side as the team from Brussels ran out 6-3 aggregate winners. The former Bodø/Glimt man has been in fine form during the sides European campaign, with five goals and two assists in eight games. If Union want to sign the striker they will need to pay a reasonable fee, given that he is under contract until 2026.

Boniface joined the club in the summer of 2022 for around €2.00m from Norway, where he had played 66 times for Glimt and scored 23 goals alongside eight assists. Boniface already has 14 goals for Union in just 39 game, while already matching the eight assists. The Nigerian has taken over from Denis Undav, who departed for Brighton permanently in the summer. With Dante Vanzeir also having left, Boniface has become the main man for Union. He and Yorbe Vertessen have started to form what looks to be a promising partnership. However, against Union Berlin it was Simon Adingra who partnered the Nigerian striker, with the man on loan from Brighton also having a fine season in Belgium.
