Ushering in the new year, Nigerian international Victor Boniface has disclosed one thing he failed to achieve in 2024.
As the world celebrates the new year 2025, many are also looking back to count their achievements in the previous year.
At the beginning of last year, Boniface suffered an injury that forced him to miss the Africa Cup of Nations in the Ivory Coast.
Coach Jose Peseiro had included the forward in his provisional squad for the tournament, but injury eventually ruled him out.
Despite his impressive form for Bayer Leverkusen, the forward also missed out on the nominations for the 2024 CAF Awards.
However, those setbacks seem not to bother the forward heading into the new year.
He has taken to social media to disclose one thing he failed to achieve in 2024.
Sharing his New Year message on X, the striker wrote: "A busy year, I forgot to marry again."
According to the Nigerian outlet Soccernet, Boniface is in a relationship with a Norwegian beauty, Rikke Hermine Jensen.
The lovebirds met in 2021 when the Nigerian striker played for Norwegian league giants FK Bodo/Glimt.
He made 66 appearances and scored 23 goals for the club. It was further gathered that Hermine hails from Bodo, Norway, but is currently based in Lier, Belgium.
She has been a supportive lover, taking to social media on several occasions to flaunt Boniface's achievements.
Her social media timeline is flooded with Boniface's feats with Bayer Leverkusen, especially after they lifted the 2023/2024 Bundesliga title.
On the other hand, the 24-year-old also reflected on what he achieved last year, sharing iconic pictures with the caption "Merci 2024".
He won five Bundesliga Rookie of The Month awards, the 2024 Rookie of The Season trophy, and was part of the Leverkusen side that won a historic treble.
He added, "Bye 2024. We see everything in case you don’t know. See you 2025.”
