Kaizer Chiefs are indeed making a decisive push to secure the services of Oswin Appollis from Polokwane City, and recent reports suggest that they have submitted an improved bid.
Kaizer Chiefs are making bold moves to secure the signature of Oswin Appollis, with The South African exclusively revealing that Amakhosi are aggressively pursuing the talented midfielder from Polokwane City. Chiefs have identified Appollis as a key target to enhance their attacking options under new coach Nasreddine Nabi.
Chiefs set to make improved bid for Polokwane City’s star
Kaizer Chiefs are gearing up to submit a significantly improved bid for Oswin Appollis, the standout player from Polokwane City. Appollis has signalled his readiness to join The Glamour Boys, expressing a strong desire to test himself at a higher level. While he remains grateful to Polokwane City for providing him with a platform in the top flight, his ambition to play at a bigger club is driving this potential move.
Recent reports from SABC Sport reveal that Oswin Appollis’ proposed transfer to Algerian club MC Alger could fall through. The deal, initially anticipated to be finalised before the start of the Betway Premiership, stalled due to incomplete formal paperwork and a disagreement over the financial structure.
This publication understands that Polokwane City sought more money upfront, causing complications as the Algerian transfer window approaches its deadline on Tuesday at midnight.
This development opened the door for Kaizer Chiefs, who have been in talks with Appollis and his representatives to assess his interest in joining their ranks.
Chiefs’ urgent pursuit: Nabi’s focus on signing a winger
On Tuesday morning, The South African confirmed that Chiefs are still actively pursuing Oswin Appollis. Coach Nasreddine Nabi has reiterated the club’s urgent need for a winger, especially with the PSL transfer window closing in just 10 days. “Coach Nabi has confirmed that a winger is high on their wishlist. Especially with the transfer window closing in less than two weeks,” a trusted insider revealed.
The insider further disclosed, “Kaizer Chiefs are keenly eyeing Appollis as a top target.” The club’s desire to strengthen their squad with a dynamic winger aligns perfectly with Appollis emerging as a prime candidate for this role.
Source confirms enhanced offer for Appollis
In the latest update, the insider confirms that Kaizer Chiefs are preparing to make an improved bid for Oswin Appollis. “Chiefs are preparing to submit a better bid for (Oswin) Appollis following direct discussions with the player. Appollis has expressed a strong desire to compete at a higher level, possibly in Europe. Although European clubs showed interest, the complexities of the deal prevented a transfer from happening. Now, Chiefs are taking action and are set to make a new offer. We will have to wait and see what happens.”
