In the 2008–09 season, Niflore's form blossomed as he became first-choice striker due to the departure of Emil Angelov to Denizlispor. In this season, Niflore earned 31 appearances for the club and scored 10 goals.

Wilfried started excellently the 2009–10 season, scoring his first goals of the season in the first round of First Professional Football League on 8 August 2009 in a 5–0 victory over Lokomotiv Mezdra.
