Khama Billiat: Football Career, Zimbabwe Caps and Net Worth

Khama Billiat is a Zimbabwean winger born in Harare on 19 August 1990, whose football career includes winning the CAF Champions League with Mamelodi Sundowns in 2016. He joined Scottland FC in January 2025, continuing a career familiar to soccer supporters through his Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs years.

The money question needs more care than the shirt history: a published wealth estimate, a monthly wage and a player's transfer valuation measure different things. For supporters following from Lagos, Nairobi, Johannesburg, Accra or Kampala, the useful starting point is his African title, followed by his later club moves and the evidence behind those financial headlines.

Who Is Khama Billiat?

Khama Billiat is a Harare born Zimbabwe international who plays as a winger. His birth date, 19 August 1990, means he turned 36 in August 2026. If you searched simply for Billiat, this is the player associated with Ajax Cape Town, Sundowns, Chiefs and the Warriors. His South African breakthrough made his name familiar beyond Zimbabwe, while his continental football gives readers elsewhere in Africa a clear reference point.

His strongest individual landmark came in 2016, when he won South Africa's PSL Player of the Season award alongside the Players' Player and Midfielder awards. He also represented Zimbabwe at the Africa Cup of Nations in 2017 and 2019. Those achievements explain his place among African footballers whose reputation stretches across domestic leagues and international tournaments.

The Road From Harare: Clubs, Transfers and Reported Fees

Billiat's senior route runs from CAPS United to Ajax Cape Town, Sundowns, Chiefs, Yadah and Scottland. The documented transfer sequence begins with a short CAPS United spell in 2010 before his move to South Africa. Briefly dates his professional debut for Ajax Cape Town to 20 August 2010.

He moved from Ajax Cape Town to Mamelodi Sundowns in 2013, signing a five year contract and remaining until 2018. His next move brought him to Kaizer Chiefs in 2018 on a three year agreement, with his debut dated 4 August 2018. For Amakhosi and Masandawana supporters comparing his spells, the dates and honours offer a firm starting point.

After his Chiefs years, Billiat joined Yadah as a free agent in 2024. Briefly credits his 2024 campaign with 13 goals, 11 assists and the Fans' Choice Player of the Season award. He then joined Scottland on another free transfer, with his unveiling on 2 January 2025. Free transfer describes the absence of a transfer fee between clubs; wages and signing payments are separate financial arrangements.

His later club moves added further chapters to a career already marked by continental success in 2016. Yadah offered his next playing platform in 2024, and Scottland followed in January 2025.

When comparing those chapters, separate the date a move was announced from the date of a competitive appearance. A contract describes an agreement, while an appearance record describes participation. For Billiat's journey between Zimbabwe and South Africa, that distinction helps readers build a clear timeline without assuming that every month at a club brought the same playing opportunities. Compare minutes, starts and substitute appearances within each competition before drawing conclusions from the number of seasons attached to a club name.

What Does Billiat Do on the Pitch?

Billiat's role is to turn attacking space into opportunities, usually from a wide starting position with freedom to move inside. When watching him, follow where he receives the ball and where he goes after releasing it. A winger can influence an attack through the passing option he creates as well as the final touch. That is a more useful viewing guide than treating every appearance as a test of whether he scores, particularly when comparing different teams and stages of his career.

The defining campaign is Sundowns' CAF Champions League victory in 2016. It gives readers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Uganda a continental reference beyond the South African league. Billiat's individual awards that year also show how highly his domestic contribution was recognised. The Champions League final belongs at the centre of that memory: he was part of the Sundowns side that secured the African title, an achievement which remains attached to his career regardless of later transfers.

His Sundowns honours include league titles in 2013 to 2014, 2015 to 2016 and 2017 to 2018, alongside the 2014 to 2015 Nedbank Cup and 2015 Telkom Knockout. The 2017 CAF Super Cup followed the continental championship. Wikipedia also records his selection in the CAF Champions League Team of the Decade covering 2010 to 2020. Together, those dated honours explain the peak of his career without relying on a changing season total or an ambiguous appearances table.

For a closer tactical reading, watch the relationship between Billiat, the nearest full back and the central striker. Does his movement offer a short pass, create room outside or draw a defender towards the middle? After possession changes, watch how quickly those distances recover. These questions make a Zimbabwe international's contribution easier to assess across different club systems. They also give context to attacking statistics: a useful run can create space for a teammate without producing a goal or an assist for the runner.

Billiat and the Warriors: Debut, AFCON and the Caps Record

Billiat's Zimbabwe international career began in 2011. Wikipedia's international record lists 54 caps and 18 goals, with his most recent goal in October 2024. Read the records module for subsequent updates, checking that it identifies senior international appearances and states its own cutoff.

His tournament record includes the 2017 and 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, while Zimbabwe's honours include the 2018 COSAFA Cup. Those competitions give his Warriors career a broader shape than caps alone. A league appearance, a domestic cup appearance and a senior international cap belong in different columns, just as assists and goals require separate definitions. Where career tables disagree, compare their scope before adding the figures together or treating one total as a correction to another.

Billiat announced his return to international football on 28 August 2024 after an earlier retirement. That comeback and his Yadah move marked two significant career developments in the same year. Readers in Nigeria can check the fixtures module for Zimbabwe's matches. Use the fixture and team modules for the competition, opponent and confirmed selection.

For readers following Zimbabwe alongside Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana or Uganda, distinguish a qualifying appearance from an appearance at the tournament itself. Both can contribute to a senior international record, but they answer different questions about a player's career. A squad listing also needs a separate reading: selection records involvement with the group, while a cap requires participation in a match. When exploring Billiat's Warriors history, use the competition label and appearance details together to understand what each entry represents.

Khama Billiat net worth

Pindula, citing The Herald in April 2020, reported a figure of about EUR 1.9 million, then approximately R37 million, placing Billiat third behind Abdallah El-Said at EUR 2.2 million. Although described there as net worth, the figure was a transfer market valuation rather than a measure of personal wealth.

Briefly's 2025 biography carried a claim of roughly R830,000, or USD 45,000, monthly, which Billiat said was 'nowhere near' the true figure. Briefly also reported Yadah pay of approximately R95,500, or USD 5,000, monthly, plus a signing payment of R378,000, or USD 20,000.

The April 2020 valuation measures an estimated football transfer value rather than personal wealth. The report does not give a contemporaneous USD equivalent, so adding one would require an exchange rate and date. The table separates that valuation from salary reporting.

Transfer fees generally go to clubs, while salary is income received over time; neither can simply be added to a wealth headline. The dated figures distinguish the April 2020 market valuation from the remuneration reported in 2025.

A defensible personal wealth estimate would need evidence of assets and outstanding liabilities at a stated date. The financial reports listed here do not supply that complete picture. Multiplying a reported monthly wage by twelve would only produce an annualised income claim, with any assumptions about payment duration still unresolved. For readers comparing rand and dollar headlines across African markets, retain the original currency and reporting date: a converted amount does not provide independent confirmation of either the salary or the player's accumulated wealth.

How to Watch Billiat From Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana and Uganda

To follow Billiat, start with the fixture module and check the competition before looking for a broadcaster. For matches involving the clubs in his career, check the viewing information attached to the fixture. Coverage can differ between competitions. Warriors internationals require a separate check because rights can differ between qualifiers, tournaments and friendlies.

Read the displayed kick off in WAT for Nigeria, EAT for Kenya and Uganda, SAST for South Africa, and GMT for Ghana. Keep the calendar date beside the time, especially when using a listing produced in another country. The viewing module should identify availability for your market rather than make a promise across all five countries. Before arranging a viewing centre visit or opening a stream, confirm the fixture status, local time and named rights holder.
