The CEO of Belgium side Union Saint-Gilloise says Nigerian forward Victor Boniface will definitely leave the club in the summer, when the summer transfer window opens, Owngoalnigeria.com reports.
Boniface had an interesting season with 14 goals in all competitions this season and at some point was the joint highest goal scorer in the UEFA Europa League alongside Marcus Rashford of Manchester United.
According to Philippe Bormans who is the CEO of the club, the next three games will be the last the Nigerian will play in the colours of the team, saying the number of clubs interested in the forward means selling him in the summer is a must.
“Whether there is even one percent chance that Boniface will stay? Never say never, but it seems very unlikely to me. I can no longer count the interested clubs that are concrete on two hands,” Bormans told Belgium newspaper Het Belang van Limburg.
