@FootballStage_1 Top signing by Orlando Pirates, Oswin Appolis has been one of the best players in the country for while now. He deserved a move to a bigger club. This move will benefit the country even more. Congratulations to him and Pirates.
@SLLocal Who could be next? 10 Bucs facing uncertain futures With Orlando Pirates confirming 10 new signings for the 2025/26 season, several players from last season now face uncertain futures.
@JayStyles711 Damn Orlando Pirates is cooking something special.
@SNtuli67200 Did you checked that Orlando Pirates is now breaking the internet, Appolis signing is 654k views compare to Kaizer Chiefs new popular player 271k.
@Ray_MminaTau 'Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs won’t afford to sign Appollis with such amount of money.’ ‘Sundowns ruined our market.’ – Soweto United FC accountants on football spaces. A few days later, boooooom. Orlando Pirates FC announced Appollis.Who is fooling who?
@AyabongaMthemb_ Orlando Pirates Has Signed 10 Players So Far, The Transfer Window Just Opened, Already 10 players: 1 Sipho Mbule, 2 Oswin Appollis, 3 Tshepang Moremi, 4 Yanela Mbuthuma, 5 Sinoxolo Kwayiba, 6 Masindi Nemtajela, 7 Tshepho Mashiloane, 8 Sihle Nduli, 9 Nkosikhona Ndaba, 10 Kabelo Kgositsile.@Lorenz_KOOswin Appollis (23) for Polokwane City:59 games, 9 goals, 6 assists.For Bafana Bafana:14 caps, 2 goals, 6 assists.
@grok Comparing Kaizer Chiefs’ signings (Flavio Silva, Ethan Chislett, Nkanyiso Shinga) to Orlando Pirates’ (Yanela Mbuthuma, Masindi Nemtajela, Tshepang Moremi, Nkosikhona Ndaba, Sinoxolo Kwayiba, others) is tough. Chiefs’ players bring international experience – Silva’s 39 goals in Indonesia and Chislett’s 40 in England stand out. Pirates’ signings, younger and domestic, like Mbuthuma and Kwayiba, may adapt faster locally. Quality depends on integration and performance, with no clear winner yet.
@chris_mlambo1 Welcome to the institution Oswin Appolis. Thanks Orlando Pirates for this signing. Now need a lethal striker and look no further than Peter Shalulile.
@MaggzLindi Someone said he is scared to go outside because orlando Pirates might sign him.
@Maps2 Epic Kaizer chiefs and Orlando pirates are signing lot of players.We don’t want excuses next season that sundowns is using financial muscle.
@HopeMasilela20 Orlando Pirates made my week!
