Bayer Leverkusen captain and goalkeeper Lucas Hradecky has come to the defense of Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface after reports surfaced about his near move to Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr.
Al Nassr had entered negotiations with Leverkusen for Boniface, valuing the Nigerian international at €50 million. However, the deal ultimately collapsed, leaving Boniface’s future unchanged.
Speaking to Tag 24, Hradecky acknowledged the financial appeal of the move, emphasizing that Boniface had valid reasons for considering the offer.
“It’s incredible how straightforward he was about it. That’s the best way to handle such a situation, both for himself and for the club. He has earned the respect of everyone here,” Hradecky said.
The Finnish goalkeeper also pointed out Boniface’s past struggles with injuries and financial considerations. “He hasn’t made that much money in his career, so the economic aspect played a role. It was a significant amount,” he added.
Despite the transfer falling through, Boniface remains a key figure for Bayer Leverkusen as they continue their campaign.
