Mofokeng’s brilliant season
The 21 year-old, who starred for Bafana Bafana at the 2026 Fifa World Cup finals, and recently completed a move to Belgian side Royal Union St Gilloise, has also been nominated for Betway Premiership Young Player of the Season and Betway Premiership Young Player of the Season.
Pirates won the Premiership title for the first time in 16 years, finishing a point clear of Mamelodi Sundowns.
Mofokeng was at the heart of Pirates’ attacking success, with ten goals and eight assists across 27 Premiership appearances in the 2025/26 campaign.
Mofokeng’s teammate with Pirates and Bafana, Oswin Appollis, has also been nominated for PSL Footballer of the Season, Betway Premiership Players’ Player of the Season and Betway Premiership Midfielder of the Season.
Appollis has, in addition, been nominated in the MTN8 Last Man Standing category. The 24-year-old netted one goal and provided two assists across four appearances in the season-opening competition. In the Premiership, Appollis scored nine goals and provided six assists as he played in all 30 of Pirates’ league games.
Sundowns midfielder Teboho Mokoena has joined Appollis and Mokoena as a nominee for Footballer of the Season and Midfielder of the Season. The other nominee for Players’ Player of the Season is Pirates winger Kamogelo Sebelebele.
