Bayer Leverkusen are planning to ward off interest in striker Victor Boniface by handing him a new contract, says Sky Sports Deutschland's Florian Plettenberg. The Bundesliga side are hopeful of signing the 23-year-old to a long-term deal until the summer of 2029, with Manchester United one of the clubs that are believed to be monitoring his situation as manager Ruben Amorim looks for a long-term striker solution. Boniface has scored six goals in eight league starts this season.
