Boniface First Through the Door as Leverkusen Kick Off Preseason
Bayer Leverkusen playfully announced on social media that Nigerian striker Victor Boniface was the first player back for preseason. His return follows a tough loan at Werder Bremen, where he failed to score in 11 games and underwent knee surgery in December. Blocked transfers to AC Milan and Al-Nassr added to a disrupted year, but Leverkusen remain committed to his comeback under a contract running until 2028. Sporting director Simon Rolfes says the knee is in good shape but weight and conditioning are key. This preseason will be Boniface’s chance to fight for a place in the squad.
