GOAT debate: Victor Boniface snubs Messi, C Ronaldo, and Ronaldinho for Brazilian star

Victor Boniface currently leads the Europa League top scorers’ chart with 6 goals

Royale Union SG forward, Victor Boniface, has chosen Brazilian star Neymar Junior above two Ballon d’Or winners, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, as well as Ronaldinho.

During a “ask me anything” session on his social media feeds, the Nigerian man revealed his admiration for the Paris Saint-Germain striker.

The Nigerian striker was asked by a fan which of the captain of Al Nassr and the Barcelona Legend he preferred, but he responded by posting an image of Neymar.

But when asked again who he would choose to play with, the current Europa League top scorer mentioned the 31-year-old Brazilian.

He was also questioned about why he preferred Neymar above the other players. The Brazilian’s dribbling prowess and ability to get past the opposition were shown in a video that the Nigerian uploaded.

However, since the World Cup campaign in Qatar, the former Barcelona forward has not been at his peak due to an injury that was a major setback for the Samba lads.

After the World Cup, he returned to play a few games for PSG, contributing an assist and a goal for the team, but following that, he had another injury that forced him to miss the rest of the season.

Despite the obstacles, before suffering an ankle injury, the former Santos striker scored 18 goals and provided 17 assists for the French team.

However, Boniface has been wreaking havoc on the defence of his opponents with excellent passes and dribbles, exactly like his idol, Neymar.

He will surely give his club a hot summer transfer window owing to his outstanding performance this season, as clubs would come begging for his signature.
