Super Eagles and Bayer 04 Leverkusen forward, Victor Okoh Boniface, expressed his joy at returning to form after a prolonged injury layoff. The 23-year-old striker was sidelined for nearly four months due to an adductor injury, which forced him to miss Nigeria's AFCON 2023 campaign in Ivory Coast. However, Boniface marked his comeback with a stellar performance in Leverkusen's recent matches.
In the DFB Pokal match against Fortuna Dusseldorf, Boniface made a significant impact, contributing to his team's 4-0 victory. He continued his impressive form by coming off the bench in Leverkusen's 1-0 win over Union Berlin and scoring a crucial goal against West Ham United in their latest fixture.
Speaking to OmaSports TV in the mixed zone, Boniface expressed his happiness at finding the back of the net again after a challenging period of rehabilitation. He emphasized his determination to contribute to his team's success and make up for lost time on the pitch.
With Leverkusen set to face Werder Bremen in a crucial Bundesliga clash, Boniface is eager to play a pivotal role in helping his team secure their first-ever Bundesliga title. Leverkusen remains undefeated this season, showcasing their dominance in the league with just five dropped points in 42 games.
