Kaizer Chiefs are on the brink of bolstering their attacking options with the imminent signings of Bafana Bafana wingers Oswin Appollis and Elias Mokwana.
The Soweto giants are believed to be close to sealing a deal for Polokwane City’s Appollis, with the transfer expected to be finalized within the next 48 hours.
A source close to the deal has revealed that Chiefs are determined to secure the 22-year-old’s services and have already initiated serious negotiations.
However, the acquisition of Mokwana from Sekhukhune United is proving to be more challenging.
The Babina Noko have adopted a tough stance on the transfer, demanding a significantly higher fee than Chiefs are currently willing to pay. The two clubs are reportedly R3 million apart in their valuations of the talented winger.
Despite the financial impasse, Chiefs are expected to increase their offer in the coming days in a bid to secure Mokwana’s signature. The club’s hierarchy is confident of reaching an agreement, drawing parallels with their successful pursuit of Yusuf Maart from Sekhukhune last season.
With both Appollis and Mokwana considered to be among the brightest young talents in South African football, their potential arrival at Chiefs would undoubtedly inject a fresh wave of excitement into the club.
The duo’s pace, creativity, and goal-scoring ability could prove to be invaluable assets as Chiefs look to reclaim their position at the pinnacle of domestic football.
As the transfer window enters its crucial stages, all eyes will be on Kaizer Chiefs as they strive to strengthen their squad and challenge for honours in the upcoming season.
