I have a feeling that nff have blacklist this guy for excusing himself the last time he was called.
I don’t think so. He wasn’t really a regular for Bayer 04 and later had an injury lay off

I believe good performances in Germany will bring him back to reckoning

Victor Boniface not going to Saudi Arabia is best news tonight for me.

He has what it takes to be Absolutely world class and he was on the verge of running to haram league?? God forbid these nightmares.

Thank you Jhon Duran.

Raphael Onyedika Masterclasses are enough already. He is starter material in the Super Eagles XI and in midfield.

Onyedika, Christantus Uche are lads who should play together in the Super Eagles middle third alongside a third wheel (Iwobi or another MF if Iwobi is put on the right as a wide/inverted creator).

The starter materials are right there but noooo... keep playing Ndidi uno. Based on caps experience and no true tactical premise.

disappointed the move didn't go through. make he go make money as he is not useful to SE

ChrisKels:


That is why no one is worried about his move to Saudi because as long as the super Eagles is concerned, 90% of the fans don't rate him, and for now, wouldn't consider him a loss if he goes there.

exactly my thoughts. just seeing this.

ChrisKels:
I don't know why some of you are complaining over this move. To me, this guy made the right move at the right time considering his injury history, after all, he has been a rope of sand in the green white green so why the bickering?

Dude should go amass some wealth when he still has the time.

It is not about his earnings. It is about his football potential and his Super Eagles future. That is what I am concerned about. What gives you the right to question my wishes as a fan of the Super Eagles?

The same way you don't have the right to dictate the path another human follows to better himself how he sees fit..
You concern is of no importance to him and he's family, if it was he won't have accepted the deal..
Human beings will do whats best for them..
Fans are selfish I understand..

Again, you are not reading with understanding.

I am personally happy he gets to stay in Europe to fulfill his football potential and get his chance to become a Super Eagles key player. I never commented on his wages or money... so how am I dictating? I am concerned for my favorite team, the Super Eagles and his world class potential as a player who could still become valuable to the team.

So you can stop your vexations about the money side which adds nothing to the reality on ground. The move failed. Boniface isn't going to Saudi arabia. How are you even sure he did or didn't wanna go?

And you say Fans are selfish. But isn't it the same fans here who want Boniface to go to Saudi Arabia based on the money side alone and also because he is "useless" to the Super Eagles? What do you call that?

You can rest now.

🔴⚫️ Bayer director Rolfes confirms Victor Boniface-Al Nassr deal is OFF.

“There have been talks, but we are happy that he will be training with us today. I assume that he will stay”.

“He feels comfortable here, his attitude towards the club is unchanged”.

🚨 Tolu Arokodare is referenced by Benfica, says 'V+TVI'.
The 24-year-old striker has 16 goals and 5 assists in 27 games for KRC Genk this season.
The 1.97m player has a market value of 9 million euros

If afcon was to be played next month do you think SE are in a better position to win it or rather reach the finals just like last year

Or they have declined and would not reach the finals

The Friedkin Group will give David Moyes £33.5m to spend on 2 new attacking players before the end of the transfer window.

Nottingham Forest Striker, Taiwo Awoniyi as well as Hamza Igamane, Marcus Edwards, Evan Ferguson and Brian Brobbey are all on a shortlist.

I think we have improved in a few positions particularly midfield. The top 9 position is the only area that's not really any different from last AFCON. Positions still up for grabs as Osimhen's back up. Hopefully one or two out of Boniface, Awoniyi, KC, Moffi, Sadiq, Dessers, Akor, or Tolu will step up. Wings sorted with Lookman, Simon, and Chukwueze. Ejuke and Tella would be nice additions.

Midfield looking more settled with an in form Iwobi and Onyedika. Frank still a tank, Fisayo looking the part and still improving, Potential addition of Chrisantus will boost the midfield. With Daga and Ebenezer on the horizon the middle of the park is looking promising for short to medium term.

Defense needs more quality additions especially CB and maybe LB (Bruno is improving). Goalkeeper Nwabali still looking solid. Okoye would be a good back up but his betting issue is a worry.

Overall I'm very confident this squad can get to the final if not win the whole thing with sound coaching and luck/divine providence.

The same Onyedika was on the bench under Peseiro till Finidi came and started starting him if it was other way round na to dey condemn local coach......... Onyedika would have won us Afcon.
Onyedika wont do anything under Pesiero tactics…las las una go blast coach for benching whosoever you guys wanted to be benched…pesiero wanted to use mourinho tactics to win afcon…he did not come to use a tactic that will enable a midfielder that has eye for goal to come and score a goal…
Pesiero afcon tactics was “EVERYONE FALL BACK AND PASS THE BALL TO OSIMHEN,LOOKMAN,MOSES”….finidi came and change tactics then we saw midfielders like Bashiru and Onyedika getting getting goals again against SA and Benin

Has Anjorin indicated he wants to switch to play for SE? I prefer to deal with certainties than kanipeisms.

Daga is quality a full year in Europe should brush him up.

Good point but my comment was for people who are always attacking local coach citing Ralpheal Onyedika as an example.
