Sampson Adedeji

Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso has issued a warning to the club's Bundesliga rivals, declaring that striker Victor Boniface is back to his best, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Super Eagles forward has recently struggled with form due to injury but found the net last weekend, signalling his return to peak performance.

Alonso praised the partnership between Boniface and Schick, emphasizing the Nigerian striker’s versatility and readiness to start matches.

“I liked both [Boniface and Schick] against Bochum, especially in the second half," Alonso told BILD.

 "Boni is back at a good level and can certainly play from the start. With him, we have flexibility—he can play as a centre-forward or as a winger."
