According to a report by Sportswire, per the South African, Kaizer Chiefs have been keeping an eye on Appollis over a summer move.

However, they will face tough competition from AmaZulu, who are also interested in signing the forward.

Both PSL clubs are said to have made contact with Polokwane City concerning the Bafana Bafana star, but they are still waiting for feedback from the Rise and Shine.

Amakhosi could edge out Amaqhawe in the race to sign Appollis due to their prestige and financial strength.

Polokwane City interim coach, Phuti Mohafe recently tipped Appollis for a move abroad after an impressive season in the South African league.

"I don’t know if he [Appollis] has an overseas offer but what I was saying, if the offer comes, it’s not going to be local, it has to be abroad,” he said.
