Mokoena has been in high demand

Anderlecht – who are coached by former Manchester City defender Vincent Kompany – were reported to have tabled a R20 million bid for the Bafana Bafana international, which falls short of the figure of R25 million that Sundowns apparently put forward to secure Mokoena’s signature. There was also said to be some interest from Kaizer Chiefs.

In the latest news, Soccer Laduma has received confirmation from the player’s agent, Glyn Binkin, that he has signed a deal to make the switch during the current January transfer window.

“I don’t like to talk about these things, but yes I can confirm that the player agreed terms last week and subsequently put pen to paper. All this is subject to the two clubs agreeing, but I believe an announcement is now imminent,” Binkin told the Siya crew.

Kaizer Chiefs were also reportedly interested in his services, but have been beaten to Mokoena’s signature by the Brazilians, who will welcome the Bafana Bafana midfielder on a reported four-and-a-half year contract.
