Milan joins Juventus in the race for Boniface’s signature

While Milan not-so-secretly aims to sign Joshua Zirkzee in the summer, they are readying some alternatives in case they can’t manage, and Victor Boniface is on their radar as well. He was having a tremendous campaign up until he suffered a serious thigh injury.

According to Corriere dello Sport, the Rossoneri are wary that acquiring the Bologna star will be difficult. Not only is his valuation sky-high, but they don’t know who they’ll have to negotiate with yet. Bayern Munich might activate their €40M buy-back clause just to flip him.

Milan tried to purchase Boniface before he joined Bayer Leverkusen from Union Saint-Gilloise but couldn’t come to terms with his agents.

Die Aspirin snared him for €20M. His sale will have to fetch a significant sum for them to profit from it. His price tag is around €40/50M. He has registered 16 goals and 9 assists in 25 matches this season.

Boniface garnered attention across Europe for his remarkable goal-scoring consistency, drawing interest from Juventus and other top clubs apart from Milan.

While Juventus has seen commendable performances from Dusan Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa this season, both attackers are reportedly available for transfer if the right offer presents itself.

Should Juventus opt to sell either player, a report from Tuttojuve suggests that Victor Boniface is high on their list of potential replacements for the upcoming summer transfer window.

Having the prospect of concluding the season as a league winner with Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, Boniface emerges as an appealing addition to the Juventus squad.

Boniface is a good attacker, and injury has robbed him of a lot of games this season.

However, if he gets back to form in the coming weeks and ends the campaign the way he started it, then we must do all we can to bring him to Turin.
