Victor Boniface Doubtful for Champions League Match

Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface has been ruled out of the UEFA Champions League match against Stade Brest following a car accident on Sunday. Boniface, who suffered only minor injuries, missed training sessions and did not travel with the team to France, as confirmed by sporting director Simon Rolfes and coach Xabi Alonso. The 23-year-old was a passenger in a car that collided with a truck; fortunately, no one was seriously hurt in the incident. Boniface, who has scored seven goals in ten games this season, shared his experience on social media, expressing gratitude for escaping serious harm. His absence will likely see Czech forward Patrik Schick stepping in to fill the striker role. Leverkusen aims to maintain their strong start in the Champions League, having already won their first two matches.
