As the Super Eagles prepare for a crucial World Cup qualifier, Victor Boniface is sharpening his finishing skills under the guidance of Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso.

In a recent training session, Alonso turned playmaker, delivering a precise cross that Boniface expertly headed into the net. The moment, captured on video and shared by Leverkusen’s social media team, highlights the extra effort the striker is putting in to improve his goal-scoring abilities.

Despite missing a few months due to injury, Boniface has been in fine form for Leverkusen, scoring 10 goals in 22 appearances and playing a key role in their Bundesliga title push. However, his international record tells a different story—just one goal in 11 matches for Nigeria.

With the Super Eagles struggling in their qualification campaign, they will be counting on Boniface to bring his club form to the national team. The 24-year-old has now joined up with the squad, ready to help Nigeria secure a crucial win against Rwanda in Kigali.
