The Atlético de Madrid is in the race to sign Relebohile Mofokeng, a South African left-winger who has started the season in great form with Union Saint-Gilloise. The objective of the next Atlético's transfer market is to renovate its squad across all lines.

According to journalist Ekrem Konur's revelations, the Atlético management is tracking the South African international, whose market value stands at €3.00 million on Transfermarkt, and he is under contract in Belgium until 2030.

Mofokeng's stats in Belgium and the competition in Europe

The 21-year-old forward joined Union Saint-Gilloise in July 2025 and has maintained an offensive performance of 4 goals and 1 assist in 9 matches played in the start of the 2026-2027 season. Internationally, the winger has scored 2 goals in 18 games with the South African national team after netting his first international goals for the senior squad.

In addition to Atlético de Madrid's observation, Chelsea, Brighton & Hove Albion, and Napoli are gathering scouting reports to compete for the player's transfer.

How Relebohile Mofokeng fits into Atlético de Madrid's offensive scheme

The sports management of Atlético de Madrid is analyzing the winger's ability to create chances on the left and serve as an attacking option. Following their victory in the Madrid derby before the international break, the technical department is seeking young, low-cost profiles to refresh the team's rotation in quick transitions.

On the other hand, Union Saint-Gilloise's board aims to retain the player at least until the end of this season to avoid weakening their squad.

The financial feasibility of the operation for the Atleti club

With the current valuation of €3.00 million on Transfermarkt, the winger becomes an accessible target for Atlético de Madrid's finances. However, competition from the Premier League and Serie A could raise the negotiation figure above €10 million if a bidding war ensues.

The red-and-white executives believe that advancing in discussions with the player's entourage would give them an edge against the British and Italian proposals. Atlético de Madrid's analysts will watch Relebohile Mofokeng's performances in the Belgian league and European competitions during the last quarter of 2026.

If the South African player's records and performance in Belgium continue, Atlético de Madrid will start making moves to secure his transfer and bolster their attacking rotation.
