Kaizer Chiefs’ Transfer Rumours: Billiat’s Future and Pursuit of Mendieta

June 7, 2023

1 min read

In the world of football transfers, the Premier Soccer League (PSL) is a never-ending source of surprise for its fans. Recently, there has been talk of Kaizer Chiefs’ star player Khama Billiat and their ongoing pursuit of Junior Mendieta.

Billiat’s Future at Kaizer Chiefs

According to sources close to both the player and the club, Billiat has agreed to a one-year extension to his current contract, set to expire at the end of June. Despite struggling with injuries and inconsistent form this season, the board believes in Billiat’s potential.

Billiat’s impressive record in the PSL includes 24 goals and 29 assists in 126 appearances, directly contributing to 0.42 goals per game. However, his performance at Kaizer Chiefs is not as strong as his time at Sundowns, where he recorded a direct output of 0.64 goals per game. The difference in performance cannot be solely attributed to the quality of players surrounding Billiat at Masandawana. Currently, Billiat has scored 97 goals as a top-flight player in the PSL era, and fans are wondering if he will reach the coveted 100-goal milestone.

Pursuit of Junior Mendieta

After the swift signings of Thatayaone Ditlhokwe and Given Msimango, Kaizer Chiefs’ pursuit of Junior Mendieta remains a top priority. However, securing the talented playmaker may prove to be a challenge as they face stiff competition from other interested clubs, including Orlando Pirates.

The Anticipation for the Upcoming Football Season

As the transfer window progresses, Kaizer Chiefs’ fans eagerly await updates on the club’s pursuit of Mendieta and any further developments in their quest for glory. With the football season quickly approaching, the anticipation for the upcoming season is palpable.

In Summary

Kaizer Chiefs have managed to secure Khama Billiat’s services for another year, despite his recent struggles. However, their pursuit of Junior Mendieta continues to be a hot topic amongst PSL transfer rumours. With the football season quickly approaching, fans are excited to see how their beloved club fares in the ever-competitive world of football transfers.
