Ronaldo’s Al Nassr Close In On Super Eagles’ Forward Boniface

Saudi club Al Nassr are currently in discussions to sign Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface, according to Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

Romano revealed that Al Nassr, who have Cristiano Ronaldo and Senegalese international Sadio Mane on their payroll, are seeking to acquire a new striker to fill the void left by Talisca, who has departed for Turkish giants Fenerbahçe.

“Al Nassr have commenced official talks for Victor Boniface as their new striker,” Romano stated on X. “Negotiations are underway with Bayer Leverkusen regarding the Nigerian striker to replace Talisca. Another candidate is Jhon Durán, but Aston Villa are adamant about retaining him at the club.”

The 23-year-old recently signed a new contract with the Bundesliga champions, which will keep him at Bayer Leverkusen until 2029. This agreement positions the former Union Saint-Gilloise player among the top earners at Leverkusen. Die Werkself is expected to demand at least €50 million for the striker’s transfer.
