Victor Boniface has been ruled out of Werder Bremen’s final home game of the year against VfB Stuttgart due to injury, DAILY POST reports.
Boniface, according to Bremen head coach Horst Steffen, is currently battling a knee injury.
Steffen declared that he is not certain the Nigeria international will play again for the club this year.
“It happened in a challenge, knee to knee, and it really hurt,” Steffen told the club’s official website.
“Unfortunately, the recovery hasn’t been as quick as we’d hoped. I can’t yet say whether he’ll be available for us again this year.”
Boniface joined the Green and Whites on loan from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer.
The 24-year-old has registered two assists in 11 league outings for Bremen this season.
