He however had a short season following an injury that forced him out for three months from January, which also led to his missing the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Boniface has so far registered 13 goals and three assists in the Bundesliga this season, helping Bayer Leverkusen win their first-ever Bundesliga title.
Die Werkself are also in the final of the DFB Pokal and UEFA Europa League.
