Nigerian international Victor Boniface has been linked with a shocking move to the Saudi Pro League.

Reports indicate that Al Nassr have opened talks with Bayer Leverkusen over a possible deal for the 24-year-old.

According to transfermarkt expert Fabrizio Romano, Al Nassr want to replace Anderson Talisca, who has been tipped to leave the Saudi Pro League, with the Super Eagles star.

In a post on X, Romano wrote, “Understand Al Nassr have started official talks for Victor Boniface as a new striker!

Negotiations are ongoing with Bayer Leverkusen for the Nigerian striker to replace Talisca.

“The other candidate is Jhon Durán… but Aston Villa still insist on keeping him at the club.”

Boniface recently extended his contract with the Bundesliga title holders to 2026.

The former Royal Union SG striker has a market value of around €50m.
