Best Kaizer Chiefs XI next season with Salum and Appollis
Kaizer Chiefs need to add marquee names in several positions to become Betway Premiership title contenders next season. So far, Feisal Salum is the most eye-catching player linked with a move to Naturena. Recently, Bafana wingers Oswin Appollis and Elias Mokwana are also back in the conversation. Chiefs shift focus to signing a key Orlando Pirates target Bvuma; Solomons, Msimango, Miguel, Dortley; Cele, Salum; Duba, Appollis, Lilepo; Mayele. Chiefs have reportedly ditched their interest in Bafana and Esperance winger Elias Mokwana. Instead, their eggs are all in the Oswin Appollis basket. 'If you were talking about Appollis, I could have agreed with you. It's also an open secret that Chiefs are interested in him. The negotiations are believed to also be at an advanced stage as there are a few logistics they are working on, but not Elias Mokwana,' an insider told Soccer Laduma. Although Kaizer Chiefs endured a mostly frustrating campaign, they did end their long trophy drought by lifting the Nedbank Cup. To make it sweeter, they beat Orlando Pirates to do so. Nasreddine Nabi's next challenge will be to turn this side into legitimate title contenders. After all, this is a man who won back-to-back trebles in Tanzania. His allure could prove strong enough to see Feisal Salum make a move from Azam FC. Click for the story Kaizer Chiefs head coach Nasreddine Nabi.
