South African outfit Kaizer Chiefs have reignited their interest in Polokwane City attacker Oswin Appollis as the summer transfer window approaches.
The Soweto giants faced challenges despite triumphing over Orlando Pirates to annex their first title in 10-years. However, Kaizer Chiefs are seeking to strengthen their squad for the new campaign in order compete next season.
As part of their ambitious squad rebuild, the Polokwane City attacker, valued at R16 million, has returned to the top of Amakhosi’s wishlist after initially being sidelined during their earlier recruitment assessments.
Kaizer Chiefs sees Appollis as essential for their continental ambitions, valuing his national team experience as the team gear up for African competitions.
The potential acquisition of Appollis signals Kaizer Chiefs’ determination to inject proven PSL quality into their squad after a disappointing campaign.
The 23-year-old made 26 appearances in the South African Premiership, scoring two goals and providing assist.
At the beginning of the campaign, Appollis was linked with a move to Algerian outfit MC Alger, but Polokwane held firm. Kaizer Chiefs then attempted to sign the winger but to no avail.
