Across the length and breadth of South Africa, the emergence of exciting young football talents have captured the attention of fans and scouts alike. Even the country's famous clubs, Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, and Mamelodi Sundowns, have been instrumental in recently nurturing prospects through their development structures as we find more young players are being tipped for moves abroad. Emerging from the development structures at Orlando Pirates, Relebohile Mofokeng made a significant impact in his first full season with the senior team.
After a standout performance in the DStv Diski Challenge, Mofokeng transitioned seamlessly into the first team. His prowess was further recognized when he clinched the Young Player of the Season award and netted the decisive goal in the Nedbank Cup final against Sundowns. Mofokeng's rapid ascent has not gone unnoticed, with the young star trialing at Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier in the season, and being linked to other clubs in Europe too.
His explosive pace and agility have electrified the flanks for SuperSport United. Since breaking into the first team at the start of last season, Campbell has been a revelation, contributing five goals and eight assists in 30 appearances. His remarkable performance in a comeback victory over Pirates highlighted his potential, sparking interest from clubs abroad looking to harness his talent.
