Victor Boniface will be out of action for over three months. The Nigerian striker was injured with the Super Eagles while preparing for the AFCON 2023. He will now undergo surgery. "Victor suffered a muscle injury in the right adductor region during preparations for the African Cup and will undergo surgery in the coming days," says the German club.
It's a real blow for Nigeria, but also for his club Bayer Leverkusen. Since arriving this summer from Union Saint-Gilloise, he has been one of the Bundesliga's top players. He has scored 16 goals and provided 8 assists in 23 games in all competitions this season.
