Internal reports reaching Softfootball state that Daniel Thioune is currently questioning the fitness of former Nigeria national football team star Victor Boniface.

Reports suggest the manager and Boniface have already held discussions regarding his physical condition, but Thioune is reportedly still unsure about the best decision moving forward and whether the current situation will benefit both parties.
Recall that Thioune became head coach of SV Werder Bremen in February 2026 after replacing Horst Steffen during a difficult period for the club.
He was brought in to improve results following a 10-game winless streak and has since focused on helping Werder Bremen avoid relegation and stabilize performances.

Softfootball understands that fitness concerns around Boniface could become an important issue, especially considering the physical demands of the Bundesliga and the club’s current situation.
For now, no official decision has been made, but the situation is one being monitored closely internally.
