As noted by Transfermarkt, Boniface scored 14 goals and provided nine assists in 23 league games last season despite missing a significant portion with a groin injury.

Boniface rules out Premier League move

The striker's effectiveness in front of goal saw him, like many other Leverkusen stars, linked with a move away, but he has distanced himself from discussions about leaving.

Speaking on a Nigerian online show, Curiosity made me ask; he gave the reason why he will continue to play in Germany and not fall for the allure of the Premier League.

The 23-year-old is reportedly on the wishlist of many top European clubs, including the Serie A giants Juventus and AC Milan and Premier League clubs West Ham and Manchester United.

One of the clubs interested in the Nigerian is Napoli, which hopes to sign him to replace his compatriot Victor Osimhen, who could leave the club this summer.

Leverkusen are trying to hold on to some of their top stars as it looks to defend its title next season. Jeremy Frimpong and Jonathan Tah are among those who could leave the Bay Arena.

Man Utd told to sign Osimhen

Legit.ng reported that Victor Osimhen was tipped as Manchester United’s dream signing by former striker Louis Saha, who labelled him as one of the pure strikers left in football.

Saha compared the Napoli forward to legendary strikers David Trezeguet and Ruud van Nistelrooy, the latter of whom played for the Old Trafford-based club.
