Chippa United joined race for Ox Mthethwa: Chiefs to accept offer?

Chippa United has recently joined the race and inquired about the availability of midfielder Sibongiseni Mthethwa from Kaizer Chiefs. This move comes as AmaZulu FC, who had been tracking Mthethwa, proposed a swap deal involving defender Riaan Hanamub. But Hanamub signed a new contract at Usuthu.

Meanwhile, Chiefs have also offered Mthethwa a season-long loan to his former team, Stellenbosch FC.

Sibongiseni Mthethwa, a former Stellenbosch FC player, does not seem to be part of coach Nasreddine Nabi’s plans for the upcoming season. With the new season set to kick off on Saturday, Kaizer Chiefs have already made a significant addition to their midfield by signing Njabulo Blom from MLS side St. Louis City. Blom is expected to form a partnership with Yusuf Maart as Chiefs aim to restore their status as South African football’s cup kings.

According to SABC Sport, Chippa United is also closing in on a deal for midfielder Siphelo Baloni from Orlando Pirates. Chippa will face the Buccaneers in their opening Betway Premiership fixture at Orlando Stadium next Wednesday.

Kaizer Chiefs intensify pursuit of Oswin Appollis

In related news, Kaizer Chiefs are making aggressive moves to sign Oswin Appollis, with The South African exclusively reporting on their pursuit. Chiefs are preparing to submit a significantly improved bid for the Polokwane City standout. Appollis has expressed his strong desire to test himself at a higher level, and while he appreciates Polokwane City for their support, his ambition to join a bigger club drives this potential transfer.

An insider has confirmed that Kaizer Chiefs are set to make a better offer for Appollis following direct discussions with the player. “Chiefs are preparing to submit a better bid for (Oswin) Appollis following direct discussions with the player. Appollis has expressed a strong desire to compete at a higher level, possibly in Europe. Although European clubs showed interest, the complexities of the deal prevented a transfer from happening. Now, Chiefs are taking action and are set to make a new offer. We will have to wait and see what happens.”
