Super Eagles striker, Victor Boniface wins Rookie of the month for fourth time in a row

Following his outstanding performance for his team, Super Eagles attacker Victor Boniface has been crowned the Bundesliga Rookie of the Month for the fourth time in a row.


The Super Eagles star beat off Xavi Simons and Merlin Röhl to win the prize for players under the age of 23, according to the Bundesliga.

 

Boniface, who did not score in the league in November, was given the honour for his major goal contributions.

“Instead, he chipped in with two assists in the 3-2 win away at Hoffenheim on Matchday 10. The Nigerian was his usual shot-happy self with 11 attempts, but he is much more than just a classic centre-forward,” the league wrote about the 22-year-old.

“He also set up three attempts for teammates, meaning he was directly involved in a shot on goal every 18 minutes on average,” they stated.

This prestigious award recognises the outstanding talent and potential of young footballers in DFL German Football League.

Kanyidaily recalls that Boniface won October’s Rookie of the month award as a result of his contribution in Bundesliga.
