Victor Boniface opened the scoring in a 5-nil victory against Werder Bremen which crowned Bayer Leverkusen the 2023-24 Bundesliga winners

German Bundesliga champion, Victor Boniface, has revealed that his compatriot, Victor Osimhen, told him he was going to win the league, Soccernet.ng reports.

Taaa...gbafuo there, see... if I whoze u correct slap from here ehn,u go dey find the iron wey I take hit u.

Why u no loud am wen he told u,na nw u come dey drop am, how am I soppose to blive u that.

As far as I'm concerned,na lie be that,cos no evidence.

Congrats finally,but Nigerian style of Linus still dey ur body

Osimhen, under the guidance of Luciano Spalletti, helped Napoli secure the Serie A league title after 33 years, sparking celebrations all over the world, especially in Nigeria, who were proud of their Nigerian player.

Having won the Italian Serie A, Boniface revealed to Soccernet.ng that his countryman foresaw him leading a title-winning campaign with his team, which eventually became true.

Leverkusen, after their thrashing of Werder Bremen, thanks to goals from Boniface, Granit Xhaka, and a hat trick from Florian Witz, sealed their first Bundesliga trophy for the Bay Arena outfit.

Meanwhile, Leverkusen had finished as Bundesliga runners-up on five occasions in the past, with the most famous of their failures coming during the 2001/02 season when, odds on to win the title, they took just one win from their final four games and saw Bayern Munich steam in to claim the trophy by a point.

“Like I said, it’s really good, you know. From the start of the season, we knew what we wanted and we were determined. [And] if you see when we [are] leading 3-0, we still fight to score more. So, I feel proud, I feel blessed to achieve this.

“Bayern [Munich] everybody knows they’ve been a top club for a [very] long time. But, they have something missing, but we got this from them. So I am really excited,” says Boniface to Soccernet.ng Managing Editor, Lolade Adewuyi.

Alonso’s troops have just won one out of the three titles they are aiming for as they are in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League and the final of the DFB Pokal.

Boniface, in further conversation with Soccernet’s Adewuyi, revealed that this treble title challenge is still a sole aim for the team, and the celebration is not stopping yet as they aim bigger for the season end.

“Of course, we have two [more] important trophies we are aiming at. We are in the DFB-Pokal Cup final, and we are also in the [UEFA] Europa League quarter-finals. So it doesn’t stop here. So we have to push hard. We know we won the league, it’s a big achievement for us. But we also have two things [trophies] we are aiming at. So if we can have the perfect three, of course we will celebrate more,” he continued.

Boniface was among the players who called in to celebrate Osimhen following his Scudetto Victory, not knowing his own would be coming so soon.

“Shout out to [Victor] Osimhen because I remember when they [Napoli] won the league. He told me next year will be your turn and it’s happening now. Senior man respect,” he concluded with Soccernet.ng.

The Nigerian attacker made an assist and scored a goal in today’s game against Werder Bremen, and will be hoping to continue from where he left off in their Europa League quarter-final second-leg clash against West Ham in Germany.
