Nigeria and Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface has sparked concern among fans after deleting his Instagram posts and sharing an emotional message on his Instagram Story.
The 25-year-old forward’s latest social media activity comes shortly after he was left out of Bayer Leverkusen’s UEFA Europa League squad amid concerns over his fitness.
Boniface has not explained why he removed his Instagram posts, and there is currently no indication that his emotional message was directly linked to his situation at the German club.
In the message, the Nigerian reflected on difficult periods in his life and expressed gratitude to God for supporting him through both positive and challenging moments.
“Dear God, I have no idea what’s happening in my life right now, but I just want to say thank you for being with me in my highs and my lows,” Boniface wrote.
“My life hasn’t always been easy, but one thing I know: You have never left my side. You are my everything.”
The message prompted an immediate response from supporters, with several fans using the comments section to encourage the striker and remind him of the challenges he has overcome throughout his career.
One supporter described Boniface as “a fighter” and urged him to remain strong, highlighting the Nigerian’s journey as an inspiration to young footballers.
Another fan referred to the serious knee injuries and multiple surgeries Boniface has endured, stressing the psychological and physical demands involved in returning to professional football after such setbacks.
The supporter urged fans to continue offering the striker encouragement and prayers, saying the situation was not easy for him.
Another message expressed sympathy over Boniface’s injury setbacks and wished him a successful return to full fitness.

Boniface Continues Fitness Battle
Boniface’s latest social media activity comes during another difficult period in his career as he works his way back from fitness problems.
His injury concerns contributed to his omission from Leverkusen’s Europa League squad.
Leverkusen manager Carles Martinez had previously explained that Boniface was not fully fit when the squad was selected, although he said the striker’s knee condition had improved considerably.
The Nigerian forward has endured several injury setbacks during his career, including serious knee problems that required surgery.
He will now hope to overcome his latest fitness setback and return to competitive action.
However, Boniface has not said that his decision to delete his Instagram posts was connected to his fitness situation, Leverkusen or any other specific issue.
The meaning behind his latest message therefore remains unclear.
For now, the reaction from supporters has provided a show of solidarity for the Nigerian international as he continues his recovery and looks towards a return to full fitness.
