Orlando Pirates boss waxes lyrical over Rele
Pirates boss Abdeslam Ouaddou believes Rele Mofokeng is the type of talent that only comes along once in a generation.

“I don’t like to speak individually about the players, because for me, I always say that the individuality, or the individual project, should be at the service of the collective project,” said Ouaddou.
“But as you ask me that question, let me say these kinds of players you get every 10 or 15 years.
“He has talent. It is in his blood; he’s still young. Of course, we need to give him some instructions to be even more efficient, especially in that area (of the field) where there are a lot of duels. It’s crowded,” added the coach.
