Bundesliga: Nigeria’s Victor Boniface scoops player of the month award in Germany

Fast rising Nigerian attacker, Victor Boniface has been named Bundesliga Player of the Month.

The prolific attacker  beats Bayern Munich forward, Harry Kane, to the individual accolade in the bundesliga for the month of August.

Recall that the 22-year-old last week  won the Bundesliga Rookie Player of the Month for August.

Boniface scored three goals in two league outings for Bayer Leverkusen in the month under review.

Boniface joined Bayer Leverkusen  from Belgian Pro League clubside  Union St Gilloise this summer.

He is expected to be in action when Xabi Alonso’s side take on defending champions Bayer Leverkusen this weekend.

He was invited in the Super Eagles squad that faced Sao Tome & Principe in the last AFCON qualifiers in Uyo but was no fielded.

Boniface has now scooped two awards in his first season in the German Bundesliga.
