Victor Boniface is reportedly considering stepping away from the Super Eagles due to repeated injuries sustained while on national duty. Though he deleted a social media retirement post, sources say his frustration runs deep.
- Boniface posted and deleted a message indicating he was quitting the national team.
- The striker is reportedly tired of suffering injuries while representing Nigeria.
- He missed AFCON 2023 due to a major injury days before the tournament.
- Another serious injury in November 2024 kept him out of action for months.
- He’s now questioning his future with the Super Eagles despite recent efforts.
Boniface’s disappointment is understandable. At just 24, two long injury layoffs linked to national duty have disrupted his rise. For players in form, club vs. country dilemmas are often quietly endured, but in Boniface’s case, it’s boiled over.
While he hasn’t formally retired, Boniface’s silence since the deleted post suggests he’s still weighing his options. Will the NFF step in to reassure him, or will Nigeria lose yet another top talent too soon?
