Reports indicate that talented Zimbabwean footballer, Khama Billiat, has stopped training with South African club Kaizer Chiefs, and is now a free agent. Transfermarkt’s recent squad updates reflect this status, with Billiat’s absence from the pre-season camp in Mbombela further fueling speculations. Sources suggest that Billiat declined to accept a pay-cut, which may have resulted in his exclusion from the pre-season training camp.
Billiat has faced some challenges in recent seasons, spending a significant portion of the previous season on the sidelines. Furthermore, when he played, he appeared to have lost some of his former spark. In the past few seasons, Billiat has struggled to score goals and appeared less threatening in front of the net. Although he improved from his previous season with eight goals and eight assists in 27 matches, these statistics are less than the expectations for one of the Premier Soccer League’s (PSL) highest-paid players.
The arrival of new attacking talents such as Ranga Chivaviro and Pule Mmodi and the rise of Ashley du Preez, Mduduzi Shabalala, and young star Wandile Duba has pushed Billiat down the pecking order. With Amakhosi’s management offering him a lower salary, it’s evident that they no longer regard him as highly valuable to the team.
The next step in Billiat’s career remains uncertain as he explores the opportunities available to him as a free agent. However, it’s essential to remember the passion, skill, and determination that drove his success with Mamelodi Sundowns. With the right opportunity, Billiat’s talent could once again shine brightly, reminding fans of the player who once dominated the South African football scene.
As Khama Billiat leaves Kaizer Chiefs, his future may appear uncertain, but it also presents new opportunities for growth and success. As a free agent, he will hopefully find a team that enables him to rediscover his prowess on the field and captivate fans once more.
