Reports suggest that the Pirates have received a transfer offer from Minnesota United, who are ready to put up around 2 million euros plus additional bonuses for both the player and the club.

Already at Minnesota is Mofokeng's compatriot Bongokuhle Hlongwane, who joined the club in 2022 from Maritzburg United. This could be a decisive factor in Mofokeng's decision-making process.

At the moment, negotiations between the parties are ongoing.
