Relebohile Mofokeng’s impressive performances in European football are attracting increasing attention, with Belgian journalist Tjorven Messiaen predicting that the South African youngster could see his market value rise to approximately R369 million before the end of the season.

Speaking exclusively to SoccerBeat, Messiaen shared his assessment of the 22-year-old’s progress since joining Union Saint-Gilloise from Orlando Pirates. The attacker has made an impressive transition to Belgian football, settling into the team quicker than anticipated and establishing himself as an important member of the squad.

Mofokeng has contributed goals and assists while also making a significant impact in the Europa League, where he currently leads the competition’s statistics for chances created. His creativity and ability to influence attacking movements have further strengthened his reputation.

According to Messiaen, injuries to several Union players have created additional opportunities for the South African international. However, he believes Mofokeng has done more than simply benefit from the situation, earning his place through consistent displays. His intelligent movement, ability to operate between defensive lines and quick decision-making have made him valuable to the team.

Regarding possible transfers, Messiaen revealed that Union Saint-Gilloise have not received any official offers for the youngster. Although Chelsea, Atlético Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen have been mentioned among clubs monitoring his situation, he explained that transfer rumours and genuine negotiations are two different things.

Reports in Belgium previously suggested that Union could demand approximately €15 million for Mofokeng. However, Messiaen considers that amount an early valuation rather than a confirmed asking price, particularly because the player has spent only four months at the club.
