Orlando Pirates’ teenage sensation Relenohile Mofokeng could still get an opportunity for an overseas move before the new season begins as his star continues to rise.
Mofokeng was one of the winners at the PSL awards ceremony last night following a successful season with the Buccaneers where he was one of the star performers in the team’s cup double success.

The 19-year-old walked away with the Nedbank Cup Most Promising Player of the Season and DStv Premiership Young Player of the Season awards respectively.
Mofokeng’s performances also earned him a place in Bafana Bafana under coach Hugo Broos who handed him his South Africa debut during the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Zimbabwe recently.
In recent weeks, Mofokeng has been linked with a few clubs in Europe, including Scottish outfit Glasgow Rangers and Levante in Spain.

With Bucs set for a pre-season camp in Spain next month, where they are scheduled to play three competitive friendly matches between July 12 and July 19 as confirmed by the club, Mofokeng is likely to get another opportunity to impress for a possible European move.
“The plan remains the same, and that’s for the boy to go as far as he can in his career as early as possible, and he is being supported fully with regards to earning an overseas move. That’s why he was allowed to go for trials in England last year. He is such a talented player and one for the future of South African football,” said the source.
