Royale Union Saint-Gilliose star Relebohile Mofokeng has once again made South Africans proud. The 22-year-old has this time done it through a shirt auction.
The former Orlando Pirates attacker’s Union Saint-Gilloise jersey has attracted the fifth-highest bid in the latest Younited Pro League auction rankings.
As revealed by to a Jupiler Pro League’s graphic publisher on social media, Mofokeng’s shirt had attracted a bid of €562 (approximately R10,400).
The Sharpeville-born player’s shirt was listed alongside several established players in the rankings. H. Vanaken leads the auction after attracting a bid of €1,700, while J. Ito occupies second position with €949.
D. Ayensa is third with €900, followed by M. Epolo in fourth place after receiving a €700 bid. Mofokeng completes the top five with his Union SG jersey attracting €562.
The report follows after Mofokeng topped the UEFA Europa League rankings for big chances created this season.
The former School of Excellence player has created 15 big chances, more than any other player in the competition at this moment.
The auction forms part of the Younited Belgium campaign, an initiative that uses football to support people experiencing difficult social circumstances.
Through the project, supporters can purchase special football shirts while contributing towards the organisation’s work.
All proceeds from the auction will go towards supporting Younited Belgium and its social initiatives. For Mofokeng, featuring among the five highest bids is another interesting development in his European journey.
Mofokeng continues to build his profile at Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, with his performances and growing recognition putting him in the company of established names in Belgian and European football.
Supporters have until Friday to place their bids, meaning his position could still change before the auction closes.
Meanwhile, Mofokeng is currently in camp with Bafana Bafana ahead facing Kenya at the Orlando Amstel Arena on Friday at 18:00.
