Boniface recalled a moment when Osimhen, reflecting on his own triumphs, predicted Boniface’s future success.
“Shout out to [Victor] Osimhen because I remember when Napoli won the league. He told me next year will be your turn and it’s happening now. Senior man respect,” Boniface shared with Soccernet.ng Managing Editor, Lolade Adewuyi.
Boniface’s stellar season in Germany saw him lift the Bundesliga title, DFB-Pokal, and DFB Super Cup, and earn accolades like the 2024 Rookie of the Season award.
