    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Kaizer Chiefs have expressed interest in Polokwane City winger Oswin Appollis while Mamelodi Sundowns are also keen on the Bafana Bafana wideman.

    Another Rise and Shine star Thabang Matuludi is also reportedly a transfer target of the traditional giants.

    But Polokwane City coach Phuti Mohafe is not ready to lose his two key players.

    WHAT MOHAFE SAID

    “I’m more than happy to still have them in the team because they are the core, and they are the most important players for us, even though those guys are touting for them,” Mohafe told the media as per iDiksi Times. 

    “So I think it’s a blessing in disguise for Polokwane City to still have them. And as for how long they are going to be with us, that one, I don’t know. That one, I don’t know, but I just so wish that they can still be with us for another season.”

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Although they have lost their last two Premier Soccer League games, Polokwane City are third on the table.

    That could make them unwilling to let go of Appollis and Matuludi for them to increase their chances of a top-four finish at the end of the season.

    Chiefs might overlook the need to sign the two players as their number one priority now is signing a striker as they seek to address their attacking frailties.

    With Sundowns seemingly no longer the fearsome outfit, they could consider the Polokwane City duo or search outside the PSL.

    WHAT NEXT?

    The PSL January transfer window is slowly approaching and it is to be seen if there will be clubs to seriously pursue the Rise and Shine duo.

    Attractive offers might make it difficult for Polokwane City to resist selling their players.
