Former Kaizer Chiefs maestro Khama Billiat’s next move explored as top clubs battle for his signature.

Following the end of Zimbabwe’s 2024 PSL season, former ex-Chiefs star Billiat has returned to South Africa, sparking intense speculation about his next move. After his departure from Kaizer Chiefs in June 2023, Billiat struggled to secure a deal with a new club in the Betway Premiership. Despite talks with SuperSport United, the two sides failed to reach an agreement. This setback led Billiat to make a bold decision to revive his career back home in Zimbabwe, joining Yadah FC in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League.

Billiat signed a one-season contract with Yadah FC, aiming to reignite his form and career. The 34-year-old played a pivotal role for the club throughout the season, making a huge impact despite their mid-table finish. “I became the first Yadah FC player to be voted onto the Soccer Stars’ Calendar,” Billiat proudly shared after his standout season. His 13 goals in 26 appearances earned him the title of top scorer for the team, but Yadah FC ended the season in 11th place, falling short of a top-eight finish.

Billiat’s impressive form in Zim amid struggles

While Yadah FC did not achieve the desired results, Billiat’s individual brilliance shone through. He proved to be the club’s point of difference, delivering strong performances week after week. His goal-scoring form was enough to put him in the spotlight, but it was his influence off the ball that also helped elevate Yadah’s attacking play. Despite the team’s struggles, Billiat’s talent stood out, marking him as one of the top players in the league. His performance earned him recognition, making him a free agent as his contract expired with the conclusion of the 2024 season.

Now a free agent, Billiat is once again at the center of transfer speculation. Multiple clubs are already vying for his services, with a major focus on his potential return to the Betway Premiership. His management is working tirelessly to secure a deal in South Africa, where Billiat made his name at Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns.

Meanwhile, newly-promoted Scottland FC in Zimbabwe is reportedly leading the race to sign the former Chiefs star. However, they will face stiff competition from two unnamed clubs in Tanzania, who have already made contact with Billiat’s camp.

International success boosts his market value

Billiat’s recent success with Zimbabwe’s national team also adds to his appeal. His vital contributions helped The Warriors secure a spot in the 2025 AFCON finals. Billiat scored a crucial goal and provided an assist in their qualifying campaign, showcasing his enduring quality on the international stage.

As the January transfer window approaches, Billiat’s next move remains uncertain. His impressive performances at both club and international levels have ensured that he will remain in high demand. The race for his signature is just heating up, and fans across Africa will be watching closely to see where the former Kaizer Chiefs talisman lands next.
