Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface has completed a move to Bundesliga side Werder Bremen, joining on a season-long loan for the 2025/26 campaign.
The Nigerian striker arrives from Bayer Leverkusen, where he was part of their title-winning squad, and is expected to add significant attacking strength to Bremen’s frontline. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Werder Bremen will cover part of his salary under the agreement.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Boniface shared his excitement:
“The discussions with those in charge convinced me to make the move to Werder Bremen. I want to contribute with my performances to helping us achieve our common goals this season. I’m looking forward to my new team and my time at Werder Bremen.”
Head coach Horst Steffen praised the addition, saying:
“Victor is physically very strong, has an excellent finish, and brings great pace. He stood out as both a scorer and creator during Bayer Leverkusen’s championship season. I’m confident he can become an important player for us this year.”
Peter Niemeyer, Head of Professional Football at Bremen, also welcomed the deal:
“We are delighted to have secured Victor’s services. He has already proven his quality in the Bundesliga, and we believe he will continue to show that here with us.”
The move signals a fresh chapter for Boniface, who will be keen to make an immediate impact and help Bremen push for a successful Bundesliga campaign.
