Belgian Jupiler Pro League side Royale Union Saint-Gilloise have unveiled Bafana Bafana star Relebohile Mofokeng as their latest signing.

Mofokeng, 21, joined the Belgian side after reaching a club-to-club agreement with Orlando Pirates before the 2026 FIFA World Cup already.

The Buccaneers announced his exit on Wednesday, with St. Gilloise now unveiling Mofokeng as their latest player after he passed his medical and put pen to paper on a four-year contract, with an one-year option.

“Relebohile Mofokeng is Union’s latest signing,” the club stated.

“The South African joins from Orlando Pirates and has signed a contract until mid-2030, with the club holding an option to extend it by a further year.

“The 21-year-old talent was in action at the FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico last week with South Africa.

“He started two matches, including the knockout clash against Canada, featuring his future teammate Promise David. In addition to his performances for Bafana Bafana, Mofokeng has been a key player for Orlando Pirates for several years. Last season, he helped them win the league title.”

Mofokeng will wear the number 38 shirt at the Belgian club, who will enter the UEFA Champions League in the third qualifying round in August.
