Spiteful Rise & Shine hold Appollis back

The Citizen

|

February 01, 2025

The way transfers are secretly done in South Africa, it wouldn't surprise me if it turns out that Oswin Appollis has actually been sold in the latest transfer window.

- Katlego Modiba

Having said that, it looks highly unlikely that the attacking midfielder has secured his dream move away from Polokwane City.

This is why I think the current state of affairs is not helping the club and if I were Appollis, I would've gone on strike to force the move.

It's not like there isn't interest in his services and from what we've been told, City's evaluation for Appollis has been met by his admirers.

There's absolutely no footballing reasons why the 23-year-old is still at Rise and Shine. He has already proven himself in the Premier Soccer League and he's an integral part of Bafana Bafana, South Africa's national football team.

Despite multiple offers from top clubs, including Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates, Appollis has once again been denied a move away from City in the current transfer window.
