Nigerian Striker Victor Boniface snubs Premier League, eyes Germany and Spain
In a surprising revelation, Nigerian forward Victor Boniface has expressed his reluctance to play in the Premier League, citing a longstanding preference for Germany and Spain.
Boniface, who currently plies his trade in Europe, made his stance clear in a recent interview. “I’ve never been drawn to the Premier League,” he confessed. “This isn’t a recent development; I’ve held this view since before my move to Europe.”
The 23-year-old striker, known for his clinical finishing and pace, acknowledged that a lucrative offer from a top Premier League club could change his mind. “If a great EPL team comes knocking, I won’t rule out the possibility,” Boniface admitted. However, his heart remains set on two other European powerhouses.
“Germany and Spain are my dream destinations,” Boniface revealed. “If I had to choose two countries to live and play in, it would be these two.” The attractions of the Bundesliga and La Liga, renowned for their technical flair and intense competition, seemingly outweigh the Premier League’s allure.
Boniface’s stance raises eyebrows, given the Premier League’s reputation as one of the world’s most competitive and lucrative leagues. His preference for Germany and Spain underscores the diversity of European football, where cultural and stylistic differences play a significant role in shaping player choices.
This declaration may spark interest from German and Spanish clubs, eager to capitalize on Boniface’s admiration. With his impressive goal-scoring record and pace, he would undoubtedly be an asset to any top-tier team.
