Victor Boniface has been ruled out of Bayer Leverkusen’s Bundesliga match against Freiburg.

Boniface returned to full squad training this week following a brief injury break.

The 23-year-old suffered a muscular injury on international duty last month.

Leverkusen manager, Xabi Alonso stated that the powerful striker has not fully recovered from the injury and will not face Freiburg on Saturday (Saturday).

“Victor Boniface, Amine Adil and Jonas Hoffmann are unavailable for the game due to injuries,” Alonso said during his interaction with the media.

This season, the Nigerian international has eight goals in 15 appearances in all competitions for Bayer Leverkusen.
