Chelsea, Atlético Madrid, Napoli and Brighton are reportedly monitoring Relebohile Mofokeng following his move to Belgium.
According to transfer journalist Ekrem Konur, the four clubs are following the 21-year-old Bafana Bafana attacker’s progress at Union Saint-Gilloise.

Mofokeng joined Union from Orlando Pirates in July, with the Belgian club announcing his arrival on 2 July. He signed a contract until mid-2030, with Union holding an option to extend the agreement by another year.
The South African has already contributed to silverware at his new club. He came off the bench against Club Brugge in the Belgian Super Cup on 31 July and converted the decisive penalty as Union won the shootout 5-4 following a 1-1 draw.
He has also made an impact in European competition, scoring in Union’s 3-0 Europa League victory at Viktoria Plzeň on 17 September.
Mofokeng opened the scoring in the 18th minute, running onto a long pass and beating goalkeeper Florian Wiegele. Union added two further goals to begin their league-phase campaign with an away victory.
His move to Belgium followed a successful final league campaign with Pirates. Mofokeng contributed 10 goals and eight assists in 27 league appearances as the Buccaneers won their first league title in 14 years.
The latest links raise the prospect of another step in his European career, although the reporting remains at the monitoring stage. With a long-term contract in place at Union, any approach would come early in his time at the Belgian club.
