Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface has asked his teammates Victor Osihmen why he deserved to be crowned African Player of the Year.
Victor Boniface, the Bayer Leverkusen star, is making waves in the football scene, and his name is being tossed around as a potential winner of the CAF Player of the Year award.
In a humorous exchange, Boniface jokingly asked his teammate Victor Osimhen what he needs to do to win the award.
Osimhen, who won the award in 2023, had an impressive performance in the 2022-2023 season, scoring 25 league goals and helping Napoli secure their first Serie A title in 33 years.
Boniface, who has been backed by fans to win the award, has been outstanding in the Bundesliga.
The conversation started when Super Eagles players celebrated Ademola Lookman’s CAF Player of the Year award, and Osimhen applauded the Atlanta star, confirming that the award will return to Nigeria with the likes of Boniface as potential winners.
