WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Finland and Bayer 04 Leverkusen goalkeeper, Lucas Hradecky, has weighed in on Victor Boniface’s failed move to Al-Nassr, revealing his teammate did no wrong, Soccernet.ng reports. Boniface joined Die Werkself from Union Saint-Gilloise in the summer of 2023 and has been a revelation for Xabi Alonso’s side. In his first season, he won the domestic double with the team whilst playing a key role, contributing with goals and assists. In 50 games for the Bundesliga champions, Boniface has found the back of the net thirty times, whilst providing ten assists across all competitions. Saudi Pro League side, Al Nassr, were interested in Boniface, and personal terms were already in place for the 24-year-old to join Cristiano Ronaldo in the Middle East, only for them to sign Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran instead, for a fee of €77m. Hradecky, revealing how Boniface handled the transfer situation, praised the Super Eagles star for his professionalism and shared his thoughts. “It’s remarkable how directly he came. That’s the best medicine you can give the club and yourself. He has the respect of all of us. “He was often injured. He hasn’t earned that much money in his career. So, in part, probably economically, yes. It was a lot of money,” the Bayer 04 Leverkusen captain said in quotes revealed by tag 24. Boniface marked his return from injury with a goal against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim yesterday. Prior to that, his last game for club and country was in November before he injured his thigh.Get Our Sports News First – Join Our WhatsApp Channel Now!
