Victor Boniface says, “Victor Osimhen told me I will win the Bundesliga.”

It’s a moment of jubilation for Leverkusen as they clinch the Bundesliga title, ending their long wait for domestic glory. The victory is particularly sweet considering their past disappointments, notably the heartbreak of the 2001/02 season when they narrowly missed out on the title to Bayern Munich.

Speaking to Soccernet.ng Managing Editor, Lolade Adewuyi, Leverkusen’s Boniface expresses his pride and gratitude for the team’s achievement. He highlights the determination and fighting spirit that propelled them to success, emphasizing their refusal to relent even when leading comfortably.

Acknowledging Bayern Munich’s longstanding dominance in German football, Boniface believes that Leverkusen has now bridged the gap and taken a significant step forward. The triumph over Bayern adds to the team’s sense of excitement and accomplishment.

However, despite winning the Bundesliga, Leverkusen remains focused on their pursuit of further glory. With ambitions of securing the UEFA Europa League title and the DFB-Pokal, the team is committed to maintaining their momentum and pushing for success on multiple fronts.

Boniface’s comments reflect the team’s unwavering dedication and hunger for more achievements. He also shares a moment of camaraderie with Victor Osimhen, who had previously predicted Leverkusen’s triumph, demonstrating the mutual respect and support among players.

As Leverkusen continues their pursuit of a treble, the celebration is tempered by the awareness that there are still significant challenges ahead. Nonetheless, the team remains united in their determination to make this season one to remember.
