Bayer Leverkusen: Simon Rolfes confirms the return of Victor Boniface | OneFootball

Turnaround for Victor Boniface. The Nigerian striker will not be signing with AC Milan, as Bayer Leverkusen has just confirmed.

The situation has changed dramatically in the past few hours for Victor Boniface. Italian media reported that the Nigerian striker will not be joining Milan and will return to Germany as early as this Sunday.

Boniface's right knee condition did not convince after several medical examinations. As a result, AC Milan has pulled out of the deal, even though a loan agreement with a €30 million purchase option had already been reached. Simon Rolfes, Leverkusen's sporting director, has confirmed that Boniface will return to the club to continue training. "Renegotiate the contract? I don't think that's possible. His physical condition has improved. Boni needs to keep working. We believe he can still progress," he stated.
