However, they are only looking to sign him at the end of the season in preparation for the 2022-23 Belgian season.

SuperSport United CEO Stanley Matthews even revealed that Mokoena had attracted interest from an unnamed UAE club – something the club wants as they are reluctant to sell locally.

Anderlecht are coached by Manchester City legend Vincent Kompany who recruited Mokoena’s teammate at Bafana Bafana, Percy Tau not so long ago from Brighton & Hove Albion.

Another former PSL star in Knowledge Musona was also, at one stage, on the books of Anderlecht, and perhaps that could motivate Mokoena to push for the move instead of moving to Sundowns.
