With Bucs in the Mother City for their match against Spurs at the DHL Cape Town Stadium tonight, indications are that Mofokeng is part of the travelling squad as per the video shared by the club on their official Twitter account. 

Prior to his departure for England, Mofokeng had made 11 appearances across all competitions for the Buccaneers this season, including the final of the MTN8 which the Soweto giants won against high-flying Mamelodi Sundowns.

The 19-year-old's return should be a huge boost for coach Jose Riveiro who is aiming to guide the side to a league victory after four unsuccessful attempts.
