EXCLUSIVE NEWS: live from Old Trafford, Anthony Martial replacement already found as INEOS plans to raid the bundesliga league to bring Nigerian international victor Boniface to Old Trafford. According to reports, INEOS is gearing up for a major transfer move, targeting Bundesliga sensation Victor Boniface to fill Anthony Martial’s shoes at Old Trafford. The Nigerian international’s prolific form has caught the eye, and plans are underway to bring his talent to Manchester. With Boniface’s goal-scoring prowess, United fans can look forward to a dynamic addition to their squad. Manchester United Eyes Victor Boniface as Anthony Martial’s Replacement.
Manchester United is reportedly considering a move for Bayer Leverkusen star Victor Boniface. The Nigerian international has been in exceptional form over the past year, finishing as the joint top-scorer in the UEFA Europa League last season, which led to his transfer to Bayer Leverkusen.
Since joining Leverkusen in the summer, Boniface has continued to excel, significantly contributing to Xabi Alonso’s team’s unexpected title challenge. Recently, the 22-year-old was named the Bundesliga Rookie of the Month for November, beating out Merlin Röhl and Xavi Simons. This marks the fourth consecutive month he has won the award.
Commenting on potential signings for Manchester United following the INEOS Group’s acquisition of a 25 percent stake in the club, Craig Burley suggested Boniface as a strong candidate. “I think they need to bring in somebody to take some weight off Rasmus Hojlund because Martial is a waste of space. I don’t know if they’d be looking at someone like Boniface from Leverkusen. But we are talking about the summer here,” Burley told ESPN FC Extra Time.
Manchester United signed Rasmus Højlund in the summer, but the former Atalanta forward has struggled to find his form. Meanwhile, Boniface is already being linked with a move away from Bayer Leverkusen. If he continues his impressive goal-scoring form, it may only be a matter of time before he departs from the BayArena.
Boniface has recorded 20 goal involvements—14 goals and 6 assists—in 20 games for Leverkusen this season, showcasing his significant impact on the pitch.
