Florian Plettenberg, a famous journalist from ยูฟ่าเบท Germany, reported that Victor Boniface. The giant striker of Bayer Leverkusen, is one of the strikers that Manchester United are interested in.

The Red Devils are understood to be looking for a new striker and if they don’t secure one this winter. They are planning to add at least one more forward in the summer window.

United are certainly lacking quality up front at the moment, and Boniface’s form for Leverkusen has shown. He could surely be an upgrade on under-performers like Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee.

Still, MUFC will clearly have to wait for Boniface, and it won’t necessarily be cheap or simple to get him out of Leverkusen. So the club would do well to keep a few other options in mind as well.

Boniface is currently out with a thigh injury and is contracted to Leverkusen until 2028.

This season, Boniface has played in 15 matches in all competitions for the “Pharmacists”, scoring 8 goals and providing 1 assist.

Which striker should Manchester United sign?

All eyes at the moment will be on Viktor Gyokeres as one of the most in-form centre-forwards in Europe. While the fact that he played under Ruben Amorim at Sporting Lisbon will surely only strengthen any potential links with a move to Old Trafford.

Gyokeres has been on fire in front of goal, but there’ll perhaps be some question-marks. About if he can take that kind of form with him to one of the big five European leagues.

Boniface might therefore be a smarter investment as he’s more proven at a higher level, while he’s also a few years younger, so more of a long-term option.
