Victor Boniface Ready to Replace Injured Osimhen Against Libya
Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface has expressed his readiness to fill in for the injured Victor Osimhen in Nigeria’s upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Libya.
With Osimhen sidelined, Boniface is expected to lead the attack for the Super Eagles. Despite this, the 23-year-old insists he feels no pressure taking on the goal-scoring responsibility. “It’s not just about me. We have Kelechi, Awoniyi, and myself. Whoever plays will aim for the win,” Boniface told Football Fans Tribe. He emphasized that team success is his priority, stating, “As long as we’re winning, I have no issue, even if I’m not scoring.”
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
