Victor Boniface Returns To Germany After AC Milan Medical Over Injury Reports—-Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface has returned to Germany as AC Milan continues to weigh whether to finalise his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen, amid concerns over his fitness.

The 24-year-old striker, who has previously struggled with a right knee injury in 2019 and 2020 and missed several games last season due to muscle issues, underwent medical evaluations with the Rossoneri on Friday and Saturday. The results prompted Milan to take additional time before deciding on the transfer.

Milan sporting director Paolo Tare commented on the situation: “There were no extra medicals. We knew that he had problems in the past; we are evaluating everything as planned with regard to the health and fitness of the player. His qualities are undoubted. We are just trying to make the right decision for this situation.”

Reports from Gazzetta dello Sport suggest that Milan may ultimately abandon negotiations for Boniface, although a final decision has not yet been made. There remains a possibility that the club could sign Boniface alongside another centre-forward before the summer transfer window closes, according to Sky Sport Italia.

The timing of the decision comes as Milan struggles in the early stages of the Serie A season, losing 2-1 at home to Cremonese in their opening match. Boniface’s potential addition is seen as a measure to bolster the squad’s attacking options amid concerns over depth in the forward line.

Boniface, who scored in Bayer Leverkusen’s 1-0 UEFA Champions League victory over AC Milan in October 2024, now waits in Germany for Milan’s verdict on his potential move, with both his fitness history and recent injury record under close scrutiny.

Ousmane Dembélé Hits Brace as Paris Saint-Germain Knock Out Liverpool from UCL

Ousmane Dembélé Hits Brace as Paris Saint-Germain Knock Out Liverpool from UCL—-Ousmane Dembélé starred with a brace as Paris Saint-Germain secured a 2-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield, sealing a dominant 4-0 aggregate win to reach the UEFA Champions League semi-finals.

The French forward proved decisive on the night, scoring twice to end Liverpool’s European campaign and send the defending champions into the last four for a third consecutive season.

Liverpool’s night was further marred by a serious injury to Hugo Ekitiké, who was forced off in the first half with what appeared to be a severe leg issue, raising concerns over his availability for the remainder of the season.

Manager Arne Slot made bold selection calls, leaving Mohamed Salah on the bench initially, though the forward was introduced early following Ekitiké’s injury and nearly made an instant impact.

Despite flashes of pressure from Liverpool, PSG remained composed and dangerous on the counter. Dembélé broke the deadlock in the second half with a fine curling effort before adding a second in stoppage time from a Bradley Barcola assist.

Liverpool’s hopes of a comeback were also dashed when a penalty awarded for a challenge on Alexis Mac Allister was overturned following a VAR review.

The defeat confirms a disappointing end to Liverpool’s European campaign, while PSG continue their title defence and will face either Bayern Munich or Real Madrid in the semi-finals.

Ademola Lookman On Target as Atlético Madrid Edge Barcelona 3-2 on Aggregate to Reach UCL Semi-Finals—-Atlético Madrid booked their place in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals after edging Barcelona 3-2 on aggregate, despite a 2-1 defeat in the second leg of their quarter-final clash.

Barcelona made a blistering start at the Metropolitano, with Lamine Yamal opening the scoring early before Ferran Torres doubled their lead inside 24 minutes to level the tie on aggregate.

However, Atlético responded through Ademola Lookman, whose crucial strike restored his side’s aggregate advantage following their 2-0 first-leg win.

Diego Simeone’s men then held firm under intense pressure, with Barcelona’s hopes taking a major hit when Eric García was sent off for bringing down Alexander Sørloth as he raced through on goal.

Despite late attacking changes from coach Hansi Flick, Barcelona were unable to find the third goal needed to force extra time, as Atlético battled through a tense finish.

The result sees Atlético Madrid reach the Champions League semi-finals for the first time since 2017, keeping alive their dream of winning the competition for the first time in their history.

They will now face either Arsenal or Sporting CP in the semi-finals.
