One reader from the South African wants Kaizer Chiefs to risk it all to sign coveted Bafana Bafana star Oswin Appollis. Are you in agreement?
Kaizer Chiefs need fresh firepower and creativity
Getting rid of Pule Mmodi, one of the club’s best finishers and most productive players in the final third, sounds like a controversial theory. One of our readers, however, believes that’s the way to go.
A supporter with the username ‘Khosi Harvey’ had this to say. What do you think and do you agree?
“Mdantsane must be sold period and get Sirino for him, Radebe to Stellies on loan yes and Mmodi plus cash for Appollis.”

Chiefs need directness and output in wide areas
With uncertainty surrounding the future of Ashley Du Preez, a wide attacker who’s been deployed through the middle for long periods of his Chiefs, career, the club desperately needs alternatives. Du Preez is the subject of interest from the Portuguese side Vitoria SC. If they stump up a reported R30 million, Chiefs would be foolish to stand in his way. There’s also been next to no contribution from the likes of Tebogo Potsane and Mduduzi Mdantsane who the board is trying to ship out on loan. Christian Saile is also nowhere as productive as was expected. 20-year-old Mduduzi Shabalala’s future seems to be in the number 10 role, while Mfundo ‘Obrigado’ Vilakazi is still just 18 and very raw.

Should Appollis be an option?
Oswin Appollis has caught the attention of several suitors after his rise to prominence for Polokwane. His form was so good that he was called up to the Bafana Bafana Afcon squad. He’s focusing on his current employers for now though.
“Ja no comment on any of that,” Appollis replied to iDiski Times when asked about the transfer rumours.
“My job now is just to play for Polokwane City, and do great, and continue helping the team, wherever the team’s gonna be in the next few years.”
Appollis is diplomatic about it, but according to reports, Polokwane won’t stand in his way should a satisfactory offer arrive for the 22-year-old.
