Alonso stated, "There is this situation, and I understand that. There are discussions with the club." He further emphasized the team's preparations without Boniface, noting, "We have to wait. We're preparing for the game without Boni, of course."
Al Nassr, the team of Cristiano Ronaldo, has expressed interest in acquiring Boniface. However, the transfer is complicated by Bayer Leverkusen's valuation of the player at a minimum of €50 million and Boniface's recent contract extension until 2029. The 24-year-old forward has been instrumental for Leverkusen, scoring 29 goals in 49 appearances since joining in 2023. Despite his impressive performance, Boniface has faced injury challenges this season.
In response to the transfer speculation, Alonso has previously highlighted areas for Boniface's improvement. He noted that while Boniface possesses remarkable strength and ability in tight spaces, he needs to be more assertive in attacking the box when opportunities arise. Alonso emphasized the importance of guiding Boniface to make better decisions in critical moments.
As the transfer window progresses, both Bayer Leverkusen and Al Nassr are engaged in negotiations, with Boniface's future remaining uncertain. Leverkusen is reportedly seeking a substantial transfer fee to facilitate the move, while also considering the impact of Boniface's potential departure on their squad dynamics.
