    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Oswin Appollis was one of the Orlando Pirates' new signings who went to the pre-season tour of Spain, where the Buccaneers played four friendly matches.

    But Apollis missed the Soweto giants' last two games against Las Palmas and Granada due to injury.

    Coach Abdeslam Ouaddou has commented on the winger's fitness concerns, although he has been coy about it.

    WHAT OUADDOU SAID

    “It is expected that there will be some minor injuries and swelling in various players since football is played by young men,” Ouaddou said as per Isolezwe.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The injury to Appollis saw Pirates fans miss the chance to see much of him and what he promises for the new season.

    However, glimpses of brilliance in the game against Pafos might have left some convinced that he was a good signing.

    He missed the games against former La Liga clubs UD Las Palmas and Granada CF.

    WHAT NEXT FOR APPOLLIS?
