Leverkusen eye Orlando Pirates winger Relebohile Mofokeng in €3m move

South Africa left winger Relebohile Mofokeng of Orlando Pirates is being linked with a summer switch to Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen, according to the latest transfer listings.

The 21-year-old, valued at €3.00m on Transfermarkt, is the subject of growing speculation over a potential move from the Betway Premiership to Germany’s top flight. The current probability of the transfer is listed as “?” and there has been no indication yet of an agreed fee or personal terms.

Born in Sharpeville, Gauteng, on 23 October 2004, Mofokeng has emerged as one of Orlando Pirates’ most eye-catching attacking talents. Standing at 1.68m and predominantly right-footed, he operates mainly as an attacking left winger and wears the number 38 shirt for the Soweto giants.

Details of his contract situation at Pirates are not publicly available, with no formal expiry date recorded. That uncertainty has fuelled talk that the youngster could become available for a cut-price deal in future windows or potentially move on as a free agent if his current terms run down.

Mofokeng, who has represented Pirates at senior level and is listed with a market value of €3.00m as of 27 June 2026, has been monitored increasingly by European scouts following his performances in South Africa’s top tier. Recent data does not specify individual match statistics such as goals or assists, nor does it record his latest appearance, opponent or scoreline.

The lack of a fixed contract end date, coupled with his relatively modest valuation by European standards, makes Mofokeng an intriguing option for Leverkusen as they look to add depth and pace in wide areas.

If a move does materialise, a step from Orlando Pirates to Leverkusen would represent a pivotal moment in Mofokeng’s career, offering a platform to enhance his reputation and test his potential at the highest level of European football.
