Speaking to Goal.com, Daniels said Appollis must get more minutes on the field, while Polokwane coach Phuti Mohape said they will only listen to overseas clubs.

Daniels said:

"I don't say he must go to a club that's too big because it's going to limit his game time; he needs to play a lot more football."

Fans are divided

Local football fans took to social media to add Appollis to their wishlists, while others agreed with Daniels.

Keketso Lordkez Moleko says Chiefs will be a good move:

"Chiefs are in the rebuilding phase once again. So I think he will get an opportunity to play there."

Boitumelo Mbetsi disagrees with Daniels:

"He will definitely play at Chiefs."

Tumi Desbakos said Pirates is the right choice:

"True, he better join Pirates."

Andrew Monota agreed with Daniels:

"Very true, because you'll be told to fight for the starting line-up with regular players."
