A Briefly News source said Mofokeng, star of Focalistic’s ‘Pressure’ music video, can be a player Pirates can build around while they are aware of the growing interest in his services.
The source said:
“Mofokeng is highly rated at Orlando Pirates, and the club feel he is somebody who can become the future of the club. The coach has previously spoken highly of him, and they know there is interest from other clubs, but for now, he is part of the team, and they want to keep him. Of course, you cannot tell the future, but for now, Mofokeng is a Pirates player.”
Fans are divided about Mofokeng’s future
Local football fans are still deciding whether moving away from Pirates will be best for Mofokeng, as some feel he can develop better in Soweto.
Tumelo Mukhara says Mofokeng must stay at Pirates:
“Give the boy two seasons at Orlando Pirates. He needs to grow as a footballer. If he leaves now, his career will be ruined.”
Lindani Mayirha picks a destination:
“Go to Scotland, he has a chance of playing in the Champions League or Europa if he goes to Glasgow Rangers.”
Shwabade Xaba backs a move:
“This boy deserves to play abroad.”
Peter Sekalo calls for caution:
“I feel like it would be a little hasty. One more season at home before branching out.”
Noklunga Mamba is a fan:
“Go and make us proud, young star.”
