The Digest: Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface has returned to Werder Bremen after completing a rehabilitation programme at Bayer Leverkusen. The 25-year-old underwent surgery in January after sustaining an injury during training, but there is growing optimism he could feature again before the end of the season. Werder Bremen's Head of Professional Football, Peter Niemeyer, confirmed Boniface will initially train individually before gradually reintegrating into the squad.
Key Points:
- Boniface underwent surgery in January after an injury sustained during training.
- He will train individually this week before being eased back into team sessions.
- The striker joined Bremen on loan from Leverkusen last summer.
- He has contributed two assists in 12 league appearances this season.
- His return is expected to provide a timely boost for the club's final campaign push.
As Boniface works toward full fitness, his return offers hope for both Werder Bremen's season finale and the Super Eagles' future attacking options.
