Victor Boniface has opened up about turning down a move to the English Premier League, despite receiving attractive offers in the past. The Nigerian striker, who currently stars for Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, said he’s not a fan of the Premier League and prefers to avoid clubs that come with too much pressure.

Speaking on The Culture League podcast, the 24-year-old explained that he always considers the style of play and environment before agreeing to any move. “It’s not that I wouldn’t go to the Premier League if the chance came,” he said. “But for me, it has to be the right team. I look at the way they play, how they operate, and how much pressure comes with being there.”

He revealed that after a strong season in Belgium, he received big-money offers from England but turned them down because the fit didn’t feel right. “Some players don’t perform well under intense pressure,” Boniface said. “So I chose a team where I felt I could truly grow and enjoy football.”

Jadon Sancho Set to Join Juventus After Man United Agree £17.3M Deal

Jadon Sancho is closing in on a move to Juventus after the Italian club reached a £17.3 million agreement with Manchester United. United have been keen to move the winger this summer, especially after Chelsea turned down a chance to sign him for £25 million and instead paid a £5 million penalty to send him back to Old Trafford.

Sancho was also in talks with Napoli, but the deal fell through as the Serie A side refused to meet United’s £21.3 million asking price. Now, according to La Stampa, Juventus have had a productive meeting with United, leading to a breakthrough in negotiations.

Sancho is said to have agreed personal terms with the Turin-based side, with a reported salary of just over £5.2 million per season. However, there’s still one hurdle left, the 24-year-old and Manchester United are yet to settle on a severance package, with Sancho demanding at least £4.3 million to walk away from the club.
