Oswin Appollis
Polokwane Metropolis will probably be anticipating affords for his or her star Bafana winger within the shut season. Now 23, Appollis is a top quality operator with nice stability who could cause injury off both flank. If Pirates get good cash for Saleng, Appollis’ massive switch charge shouldn’t be an issue. He received’t come low-cost, although.
Elias Mokwana
Though the previous Sekhukhune man has solely lately moved to Tunisia with Esperance, there have been problems over funds. Mokwana could possibly be lured again to South Africa by a very good provide, and Pirates are among the many most tasty propositions for any participant approaching his peak.
Devin Titus
Stellenbosch’s 24-year-old winger might doubtlessly be a like-for-like substitute for Saleng as he enjoys hugging the appropriate touchline. He’s not an inverted winger like Saleng, however since right-footer Relebohile Mofokeng already dazzles down the left, this isn’t a lot of a problem. Titus has impressed this marketing campaign for Stellies, bagging six targets and 4 assists in 20 league appearances. These are critically good numbers. Absolutely he’s one of the best candidate, contemplating age, value and different related elements?

New formation possibility for Riveiro?
A trio of central defenders Tapelo Xoki, Nkosinathi Sibisi and Mbekezeli Mbokazi, handled every thing thrown at them by a pacey MC Alger assault in a difficult first-leg tie. It was a practical, wise strategy from head coach Jose Riveiro, and it paid dividends. We’re unlikely to see Riveiro use this method in Betway Premiership video games. Nevertheless, it could possibly be simply the ticket in tough continental clashes. It’s one more trait that Pirates followers love a lot in regards to the Spanish tactician: his adaptability.
