Leverkusen are aware of the interest from both Saudi and English clubs and are open to a deal but have set a €50 million price tag for the Nigerian striker.
Boniface, 24, is returning to fitness after a thigh injury sustained during the November international break. He has been sidelined for nearly two months, missing Leverkusen’s last 12 matches across all competitions.
On Monday, the German club shared a photo of Boniface training on the grass with the caption, “Look who’s back,” signalling his return. However, a previous setback delayed his comeback earlier this year.

Before his injury, Boniface was in excellent form, but his absence has allowed Patrik Schick to reclaim his place in the team, performing at his best.
Leverkusen may hesitate to sell Boniface due to injuries to Amine Adli and Martin Terrier, which could leave them short on attacking options unless replacements are secured.
