Boniface, 18, has been with Chelsea since the age of nine and was named Academy Scholar of the Year in 2022/23.
Despite his promising development, he has yet to make a senior appearance for the West London club.
The young defender has represented England at various youth levels but remains eligible to play for Nigeria.
Town see Boniface as a long-term prospect, with no immediate plans for him to join the first-team squad.
