Mofokeng, who recently joined from Mamelodi Sundowns, had not yet arrived in Belgium at the time of the visit and was therefore not present. The club made clear, however, that he will receive his car along with the rest of the squad.

"Our first-team players and staff members will get to drive CUPRA's Formentor e-HYBRID, a perfect blend of performance and sustainable mobility."
