Khama billiat is back

Kaizer Chiefs attacker Khama Billiat has been out of action since January after sustaining an injury during Kaizer Chiefs’ game against the struggling Maritzburg United of Ernest Middendrop on 9 January at FNB Stadium Khama has started training and he is doing fine.

“It has been difficult,” reflects Billiat on his time out of action. “We are professional footballers and we always want to contribute by playing through hard and good times so you can grow as a person.  I got injured against Maritzburg United and I never saw it coming. I have never been in a situation where I have had to miss so many games. It was difficult for me. I thought I would push myself harder and come back as soon as possible but I understand that everything happens for a reason. I thank God for the strength, and I feel better at the moment.”

“It was great to see the Zimbabwe quality for Afcon last weekend,” he adds. “Hopefully, I will come in and join the team and match the level of fitness required by the team. I have been out for some months now and it has not been easy. I have been coming to training and doing rehab, working hard trying to make sure that I spend less time outside.”.

“I am back,” he confirms. “Hopefully the coach will give me a chance. Thankfully I am training with the team. I just need to work on my fitness. As a player, it’s your mentality and how hard you work so you can contribute in team.”

“Wydad is a good team. We struggled to play against them in the first game in Burkina Faso. I have known them for a long time, and they are not an easy side to play against. They work hard and they have been at this level for some time and know how to play the game.  Every new game is a chance and bring new possibilities. We need to work on our game and make sure we use the fact that we are at home to get a good result. I think we deserve it. We just have to work hard as a team an apply what the coaches want us to do, he concludes.”
