South African football has another star ready to shine on Europe’s biggest stage, with Relebohile Mofokeng set to make his Champions League debut for Belgian champions Union Saint-Gilloise.

The highly rated attacker has taken a major step in his career by leaving Orlando Pirates for Europe, giving him the chance to introduce himself to a global audience.

Mofokeng is regarded as one of South Africa’s brightest young talents and has already impressed for both club and country. His pace, skill and creativity make him a dangerous attacking threat, and those qualities will now be evaluated against some of Europe’s best.

For the 21-year-old, Champions League football represents a dream becoming reality. From starring in South Africa to walking onto one of football’s grandest stages, Mofokeng’s journey has gathered serious momentum.

Now comes the big test. A first leg third round qualifier against Bodoe/Glimt in front of his new home fans.

MOFOKENG’S BIG NIGHT has arrived — and South Africa will be watching.
