Super Eagles and Bayern Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface has been named in the Bundesliga Team of the Season.
Boniface is among six Bayern Leverkusen players such as Jonathan Tah, Jeremie Frimpong, Alejandro Grimaldo, Granit Xhaka and Florian Wirtz after playing huge roles leading to their side winning the Bundesliga for the first time while remaining unbeaten in 31 league games this season.
Despite enduring a three-month injury setback, Boniface emerged as a standout performer for Bayer Leverkusen this season.
The Nigerian star has been in stunning form since joining Bayer Leverkusen from USG in the summer, scoring 10 goals and contributing 9 assists, cementing his place as one of the front runners for the signing-of-the-season award.

Boniface headlines an illustrious attacking trio in the Bundesliga Team of the Season, alongside Serhou Guirassy and Harry Kane. Together, the trio has amassed an impressive tally of 71 Bundesliga goals.
