EXCLUSIVE: Quinton Fortune: Orlando Pirates will suffer without Relebohile Mofokeng
Bafana Bafana legend Quinton Fortune believes Orlando Pirates will severely feel the loss of star playmaker Relebohile Mofokeng to Europe as they challenge Mamelodi Sundowns for the Betway Premiership title.
Quinton Fortune, a Bafana Bafana legend, has warned that Orlando Pirates will struggle without the influence of Relebohile Mofokeng. The South African football star told IOL in an exclusive interview that Mofokeng was the main player for Pirates, giving them an edge over their competitors. Although Fortune's football career took him abroad to play for Manchester United, he remained passionate about South African football.
He expressed his admiration for Kaizer Chiefs, the team he grew up following, and mentioned Nelson 'Teenage' Dladla as his favorite player. Fortune acknowledged that Mamelodi Sundowns has been strengthening their squad and investing in young talent, making them a formidable force in South African football. However, he believes that Pirates' recent success in breaking Sundowns' long-standing dominance in the league is a positive development for the sport in the country.
Fortune still supports Chiefs, his home team, but he hopes they can reclaim their position at the top.
