Relebohile Mofokeng Handed Starting Role as Union SG Target Belgian League Victory
South African football sensation Relebohile Mofokeng has been named in the starting line-up for Royale Union Saint-Gilloise ahead of their Belgian Jupiler Pro League encounter against SK Beveren.
The highly rated attacking midfielder, affectionately known as ‘The President’, will be looking to make another impression as Union SG pursue all three points in their latest league assignment.
Mofokeng’s inclusion in the starting XI represents another opportunity for the former Orlando Pirates star to demonstrate his quality on the European stage. His performances have already attracted attention, with the South African international making a positive contribution since featuring for the Belgian outfit.
The 21-year-old heads into the encounter with an impressive record of four goals and two assists from eight league appearances. Five of those appearances have come as a starter, highlighting his growing involvement in the team.
Against Beveren, Mofokeng is set to make his ninth league appearance, providing another opportunity to add to his attacking numbers and strengthen his position within the squad.
His creativity, technical ability and attacking instincts make him an important option for Union SG as they look to secure maximum points. The expectation will be for him to bring energy and quality in the final third while helping his team unlock the opposition's defence.
For South African supporters, his continued involvement in the starting line-up is encouraging news, particularly as they follow his development in European football.
