Nduka Ugbade urges Victor Boniface to learn from Victor Osimhen

Former Nigerian International Nduka Ugbade has advised Super Eagles new boy Victor Boniface to learn from his namesake Victor Osimhen.

Boniface came off the bench to make his international debut for Nigeria in a comprehensive 6-0 thrashing of Sao Tome and Principe. While his namesake Osimhen stole the show again with an excellent hat-trick, the 22-year-old also impressed by registering an assist.

Boniface has also scored four goals and made two assists in three Bundesliga matches for Bayer Leverkusen so far this season and Ugbade believes he still has to learn from the Napoli and Serie A Golden Boot winner.

”Yes, Boniface is a brilliant player and he has exhibited it with some of the goals he scored in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen,” the U17 coach told Complete Sports.

“However, he’s just new in the national team and most especially in a striking position that has Osimhen.

“I think there is a lot he can learn from Osimhen and others because they understand the system.”
