Relebohile Mofokeng played a pivotal role for Orlando Pirates in the past season and now he has got PSL Awards nominations to show for it.
Relebohile Mofokeng is the name that could echo throughout the 2026/2027 Betway Premiership season, perhaps long after he has settled and found new admirers in the Jupiler Pro League with Royale Union Saint-Gilloise (RUSG)in Belgium.
Mofokeng emerged as the dominant force in the Betway Premiership end-of-season award nominations. The 21-year-old was voted into four marquee categories: the coveted Footballer of the Season, Players’ Player of the Season, Midfielder of the Season, and Young Player of the Season.
The judging panel's decisions were driven by the stellar campaign he enjoyed with Orlando Pirates. Showing all the traits of a complete modern footballer, the Sharpeville-born sensation matched his mesmerising performances with incredible output.
He tormented defenders with his nippy, tricky feet, leaving them for dead and forcing "The Ghost," rival-detractors-turned-admirers, and neutrals alike to flock to stadiums just to witness his magic. He capped off his domestic campaign with a staggering 10 goals and eight assists in the league.
