Victor Boniface said he has moved on from his failed move to the Saudi League on a mouth-watering deal to join Al-Nassr.
Al-Nassr had reached an agreement to sign the Super Eagles player on €70m deal but they opted out to sign Jhon Duran from Aston Villa. Boniface responded last weekend with a goal for Bayer Leverkusen in their 3-1 win over Hoffenheim in a Bundesliga tie.
Boniface said he is happy to remain in Germany to improve on his game.
“There has been a lot of speculation here and there. But I like playing here and want to do my best for the team,” Boniface told sportsboom.com.
“Whatever happens in the future will happen, but at the moment I’m only thinking about helping Leverkusen achieve our goals. Transfer rumors are normal in football. It’s always flattering when big clubs show interest, but my focus at the moment is 100 percent on Bayer Leverkusen.
“Every game is an opportunity. I want to contribute goals, assists and energy to the team. I just want to stay fit, keep playing and keep improving. If I manage that, I think everything else will fall into place.”
