Since scoring his first goal for Nigeria in 2023, Boniface has gone seven games without finding the back of the net.
The striker failed to score against Mozambique in a friendly game and followed that with another poor run during the World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Zimbabwe.
An adductor injury ruled him out of the Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast and he was an unused substitute against South Africa on matchday 3 of the World Cup qualifier.
In the game against Benin Republic, the striker was in action for 40 minutes but couldn’t help as Nigeria fell to a 2-1 defeat in the World Cup qualifier.
Despite starting the 2024/25 season with a bang for Leverkusen, Boniface again could hit the back of the net against Rwanda and Libya in the first two games of the AFCON qualifiers.
