Nigeria striker Victor Boniface has joined Werder Bremen on a season-long loan from Bayer Leverkusen, the clubs announced on Monday.

“I’m certain he can be a very important factor for us this season,” Bremen coach Horst Steffen said in a statement.

The deadline-day signing came after several failed transfer moves for the 24-year-old. Boniface had been the subject of a reported 70 million euro ($81 million) offer from Al Nassr in January, but the deal fell through when the Saudi club opted to sign Jhon Duran from Aston Villa instead.

In August, Boniface was linked with a move to AC Milan but the deal fell through after he reportedly failed a medical, despite an agreement with Leverkusen.
