Overview

  • Leverkusen and Milan have an agreement in principle for a loan reportedly worth €5 million with a €24 million option to buy.
  • Boniface arrived in Milan on Friday and underwent staged examinations at La Madonnina, Centro Ambrosiano and the orthopaedic hospital Galeazzi.
  • Italian outlets reported a fourth check for Saturday, though Milan sporting director Igli Tare later said no additional tests occurred and that a call will follow a Sunday review with coach Massimiliano Allegri.
  • Milan is assessing his current condition after limited action since mid-April and recent muscle problems that affected his availability in 2025.
  • The 24-year-old twice ruptured his ACL in 2019 and 2020, missed time with an adductor injury in 2024, is under contract at Leverkusen until 2028, and saw a high-fee move to Al-Nassr collapse in January.
