Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Lucas Hradecky says Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface shouldn’t be blamed for almost joining Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr.
The Saudi club had earlier opened negotiations with Bayer Leverkusen for Boniface, with the German champions valuing the Nigerian at €50m.
However, the deal ultimately fell through, leaving Boniface’s move dead in the water.

Speaking with tag 24, the Finland goalkeeper stated that the huge amount involved in the deal almost tempted the Nigerian international.
“It’s remarkable how directly he came. That’s the best medicine you can give the club and yourself. He has the respect of all of us.
“He was often injured. He hasn’t earned that much money in his career. So, in part, probably economically, yes. It was a lot of money,” the Bayer 04 Leverkusen captain said in quotes revealed by tag 24.
