“He feels comfortable here” – Xabi Alonso confirms Boniface staying at Leverkusen after failed Saudi move

Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso has addressed Victor Boniface’s failed transfer to Al Nassr, confirming that while the Nigerian striker was open to a move, he is now focused on staying and fighting for his place at the club.

The transfer saga took an unexpected turn after Fabrizio Romano revealed Wednesday night that the deal was advanced but never finalised, as Al Nassr ultimately chose not to give the green light.

This left Boniface staying put at Leverkusen despite serious interest from the Saudi club.
