Super Eagles Striker Victor Boniface joined Werder Bremen on loan from Bayer Leverkusen after he passed his medical and completed the paperwork.

The deal runs until June 2026, and Bremen will cover part of the 24-year-old’s wages.
Boniface signed for Leverkusen in 2023 and helped power their title run with strength, clever link-up play and a knack for finishing.
Bremen coach Horst Steffen said:
“I’m certain he can be a very important factor for us this season.”
With pace and physical presence, Boniface gives Bremen a direct attacking option as they chase points.
The club nailed the signing on deadline day after several earlier moves collapsed.
He attracted a reported €70m bid from Al Nassr in January, while a proposed switch to AC Milan later faltered over a medical.
Bremen opted for a loan that should deliver regular minutes and a platform for Boniface to rebuild form.
Boniface joins a string of departures from Bayer Leverkusen this window, including Florian Wirtz, Granit Xhaka, Jonathan Tah and Jeremie Frimpong.
For Werder, the move sends a clear late-window signal: they mean business.
In a separate report, Como 1907 confirmed they had mutually terminated Dele Alli’s contract.
The club said the former Tottenham Hotspur’s star wanted regular playing time; as a free agent, he can now sign outside the window.
