Africa-Press – Eritrea. Nigerian striker Victor Boniface is poised to make his first appearance for Werder Bremen when they face Borussia Mönchengladbach in a Bundesliga clash at Borussia-Park on Sunday.
Kick-off is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Nigerian time.
The 24-year-old forward, who completed a loan switch from Bayer Leverkusen on transfer deadline day, is expected to be included in Bremen’s matchday squad.
His move came after a proposed summer transfer to Italian giants AC Milan fell through.
Boniface was officially unveiled last week following a successful medical, and fans are eager to see him bring his attacking prowess to the Green-Whites.
He played a pivotal role in Leverkusen’s historic unbeaten Bundesliga title campaign in 2023/24, showcasing his strength, movement, and finishing ability.
Bremen boss Horst Steffen is weighing the option of lining him up alongside Romano Schmid and Samuel Mbangula as the team looks to bounce back from last weekend’s 1-4 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt.
With injuries hampering the squad, Boniface’s arrival offers a timely boost to their offensive options.
The Nigerian international’s potential debut will be closely watched, as Bremen aim to reignite their season with a strong performance against Gladbach.
