Former Orlando Pirates midfielder Tito Maswanganyi has heaped praise on Relebohile Mofokeng, describing the young attacker as an exceptionally talented footballer with the potential to become one of South Africa's biggest stars.

Maswanganyi, who previously shared the dressing room with Mofokeng at Orlando Pirates, reflected on their time together and explained why he believes the 21-year-old has everything required to enjoy a successful career.

The former Buccaneers midfielder revealed that Mofokeng was already part of the first team when he arrived at the club. Despite his young age, the attacker had begun establishing himself at senior level, with his impressive performances quickly attracting attention.

According to Maswanganyi, Mofokeng's quality was not only visible during competitive matches but also in training. He explained that playing alongside the youngster was an enjoyable experience because of the technical ability and understanding of the game he consistently displayed.

Maswanganyi also highlighted Mofokeng's humility, discipline and willingness to learn, qualities he believes will play an important role in his continued development. He particularly praised the youngster's decision-making and ability to understand different situations on the football pitch.

However, Maswanganyi's comments also included a humorous revelation about Mofokeng's potential move to Europe.

The former Pirates star disclosed that he had jokingly advised the youngster to avoid joining Arsenal, although his suggestion was influenced by his personal support for the English Premier League club. His playful remarks suggested that he would love to see Mofokeng eventually represent Arsenal.

Mofokeng continues to attract attention because of his performances and growing reputation in South African football. With his technical ability, creativity and maturity, expectations surrounding his future remain high.

For Pirates supporters, Maswanganyi's glowing assessment provides another reminder of the remarkable talent developing at the club.
