“I don’t really like Premier League” — Bayer Leverkusen star Victor Boniface admits

Nigeria international Victor Boniface has been linked to Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur recently, however, he does not see himself playing in the Premier League anytime soon.

The Bayer Leverkusen star has been in good form for his club since the start of the new season, scoring three goals and providing one assist in his first four games.

The Super Eagles player has stated that he would want to stay in Germany or transfer to La Liga but he would not consider the English Premier League if he ends his spell at Leverkusen. 

“No. I admit I did an interview before and I’m not saying this just because I’m on this level,” he told Sporty TV.

“I’ve been saying this even before I had an international passport, even before I dreamt of coming to Europe, I don’t really like the Premier League.

“I said this before. I prefer Spanish football or German football. I’m not saying for example a good team comes for me I will not go.

“But I am just saying if you ask me to pick two countries, I really want to play in Germany and Spain, to live and play in Germany and Spain.”
