AC Milan are on the verge of completing a major attacking reinforcement, having reached a verbal agreement with Nigerian striker Victor Boniface. Sources close to the negotiations confirm that the player is keen on making the move to the Italian giants, with talks now at an advanced stage.
An official bid has already been submitted to Bayer Leverkusen, and while discussions remain ongoing, indications suggest that the German club is likely to accept the offer. Boniface, who played a pivotal role in Leverkusen’s impressive campaign last season, has attracted interest across Europe with his clinical finishing, physical presence, and ability to link up play.
The 24-year-old forward, who joined Leverkusen from Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise in 2023, quickly established himself as one of the Bundesliga’s most formidable strikers. His goal-scoring form and all-round performances were instrumental in Leverkusen’s domestic and European ambitions, drawing the attention of Milan’s recruitment team.
For AC Milan, the pursuit of Boniface is part of a broader strategy to rejuvenate their attacking line, with the club seeking a reliable centre-forward to spearhead their Serie A and Champions League campaigns. Club insiders believe Boniface’s style of play aligns well with Milan’s tactical approach and long-term vision.
Should the deal be finalised, Boniface would become one of the headline signings of the summer transfer window, while also adding to the growing list of Nigerian footballers making waves across Europe’s top leagues.
