A video of Victor Boniface, a Nigerian forward who plays for Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise has emerged.

The short video showed the forward waving past opponents on the field of play.

Boniface has been in a rich vein of form for his club side and has attracted interest from several top European clubs.

Amongst the top clubs that have inquiries about the forward are Inter Milan and Napoli.

Belgian outlet Nieewsblad reports that Napoli has been closely scouting Boniface this season and been impressed with what they’ve seen, so they’re interested in making a move in the summer.

Napoli has tipped him to replace fellow compatriot, Victor Osimhen should he move away from the club.

Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com reports that Boniface’s intermediaries have been in contact with Milan recently about landing the 22-year-old.

Lazio are also keen on the Nigerian forward but is currently focused on Tigre striker Mateo Retegui.

Osimhen on his part has attracted interest from Spain, England and Germany with the 150 million euro price tag slammed on him.

Boniface has scored 14 goals and provided eight assists in his first 39 matches for the club.

He is valued at around €10m, making a deal accessible for the interested Italian sides.
