Peseiro told new Super Eagles invitee, Victor Boniface can fit into any system

qualifier on Saturday at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo, Akwa Ibom, South South Nigeria.

Former Belgian coach, Marc Wilmots who watched the Nigerian when he was at Royale Union Saint Gilloise, says the new Super Eagles invitee, has everything as
a forward.

“He has everything magazine. He’s strong on the ball and fast, a real weapon. He fits into any system, either as part of a front two or as a lone striker,’
he told Kicker.

Bayer Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes agrees with Wilmots.

“Of course, everyone’s talking about his goals, but Victor is also important in our build-up play with his presence and ability to hold the ball up.

‘When the opposition press, it helps the central defenders to know they have someone who they can play to. That’s just as important as his goals,’ said Rolfes.
