Boniface’s agent is expected in Italy today to finalize the agreement, following a breakthrough between AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen over an initial loan deal with a €30 million buy option.

If exercised, it will see the 24-year-old Nigerian forward become a permanent player at San Siro.

The move comes on the back of Boniface’s standout season in the Bundesliga, where he played a pivotal role in Leverkusen’s title-winning campaign.

His dynamic attacking play, physicality, and eye for goal caught the attention of multiple top European clubs, but Milan have emerged as frontrunners.

Milan insiders say the club views Boniface as a “key addition” to bolster their frontline ahead of the new season.

While club-to-club negotiations are already completed, the transfer is now subject to medical tests and the finalization of personal terms between Boniface and AC Milan.

If all goes smoothly, he will join fellow Nigerian Samuel Chukwueze at the club, creating what fans hope will be a thrilling partnership in Milan’s attack.

The move would also place Victor Boniface among a growing list of Nigerian stars in Serie A, joining legendary names like Nwankwo Kanu, Obafemi Martins, and current Napoli forward Victor Osimhen.

AC Milan’s interest aligns with their strategy to infuse fresh talent into the squad after an underwhelming campaign.
