Bayer Leverkusen forward Victor Boniface is determined to replicate his impressive club form with the Super Eagles.
Boniface has started life at Leverkusen on a superb note, netting four times and providing one assist in three league appearances for Die Werkself.
The striker earned a move to Leverkusen this summer after his superlative displays for Belgian Pro League outfit Union St. Gilloise last season.
The 22-year-old was joint-top scorer in the UEFA Europa League last season.
The 22-year-old has earned his maiden invitation to the Super Eagles for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sao Tome and Principe.

Boniface expressed his desire to translate his club form to the national team.
”It’s good to be here with the national team, I have enjoyed my stay with the boys so far,” Boniface told Completeaports.com.
“I hope I will able to score regularly for the Super Eagles as I have done for my club.”
The Super Eagles will take on Sao Tome and Principe at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo on Sunday.

Oya Boniface…lets go my youth!
Play hard…play well, I wish you all the best, We can never have too many strikers firing from all cylinders!
Already we have Osimgoal, Awogoal, and now let’s add Bonigoal to it.
Ire o!
God bless Nigeria!
Yes man. Agreed. Awogoal and Bonigoal is sweet to the ears. I am not even talking about Osimgoal. That na wahala don come to Town.
SINCE WHEN COACH PASEIRO THE TOOK OVER SUPER EAGLE JOB, THIS IS BEST INVITATION OF PLAYERS HE HAS INVITED SO FAR. AND THIS IS WHAT NIGERIA WANT. NIFERIA ARE HAPPY SEE EBUEHI, COLLINS, JORDAN-TOROUNARIGHA, BRUNO-ONYEBUAHI, ONYEDIKA. Nigeria are still expecting the like of S.OSIGWE, AL-HASSAN,AKPOGUMA. AMAO, EJUKE, DESSERS, MOFFI IN THE NEXT SUBSEQUENT MATCHES.
** PASEIRO SHOULD STOP INVITING IRRELEVANT, INCONSISTENT, BENCHWARMER PLAYERS.
** HE SHOULD STOP INVITING PLAYERS BASE ON EGO, SENIORITY OR EXPERIENCE WITHOUT FITNESS.
** PESEIRO SHOULD STOP INVITING EXPERIENCE PKAYERS THAT ARE NOT AGGRESSIVE IR CAN PLAY 90-MINUTE ON THE FIELD OF PLAY.
IF PASEIRO COMPLY WITH THIS DIRECTION, NIGERIA WILL WIN NEXT AFCON COMPETITION FOR SURE.
Osi, Awo, Boni, Orby. Those are some good strikers right there. Give them good service, and the net will keep shaking.
Let’s just strengthen other departments, especially the goalkeeping and midfield.
Ba Ba Ba Boom! Boniface the Bombastic Bulldozing Bazooka. You are far better than most other Super Eagles strikers. I n I think Orban is average. The guy no too sabi.
But this Boniface is the best, forget the rest. Man dem is always impressed with this lad.
Nigeria is truly blessed with strikers.
Heaven bless Boniface and all deserving Super Eagles players.
My brother stop comparing. It’s not healthy doing that. They are all professional coming to contribute their quota to the nation
