According to SCORENigeria report, Victor Boniface suffered a thigh injury during a final 2025 AFCON qualifier against Rwanda in Uyo.
It was further revealed that the striker could now be sidelined for a couple of weeks on account of this latest injury setback.
‘Boni’ was long heralded as a valuable addition to the Super Eagles after his exploits for history-making German Bundesliga club Leverkusen last season.
However, he suffered a major abductor injury leading up to the delayed 2023 AFCON earlier this year in Cote d’Ivoire.
He subsequently missed the tournament and was sidelined for over three months after undergoing surgery.
The 23-year-old striker has come under heavy fire after he failed to open his goals account despite the opportunities and support he has enjoyed from coach Augustine Eguavoen.
He made his long-awaited Super Eagles debut in September 2023, but has yet to score for the country in 11 appearances.
