Khama Billiat Shines on Debut for Scottland FC with an Assist

Former Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs star Khama Billiat wasted no time in making an impact for his new club, Scottland FC, as he registered an assist in his debut match this past weekend.

Billiat’s Journey to Scottland FC

After leaving Yadah FC earlier this year, Billiat joined Zimbabwean Premier Soccer League newcomers Scottland FC on a free transfer. The 34-year-old had been sidelined due to injury, delaying his first appearance for the club. However, he finally made his much-anticipated debut over the weekend, proving his quality from the outset.

Scottland FC, which has assembled a squad featuring several former South African top-flight players, including Kevin Moyo, Ronald Pfumbidzai, and Talbert Shumba, has started the season in impressive form.

Instant Impact in Victory Over Caps United

Billiat played a key role in Scottland FC’s latest triumph, providing an assist for the opening goal in their 2-0 win against Caps United. The result saw his team open a two-point lead at the top of the league standings, maintaining their perfect start to the season.

His performance has already raised expectations, with many anticipating that he will soon receive a call-up to the Zimbabwean national team.

Potential Return to International Football

Zimbabwe national team coach Michael Nees is expected to name his squad soon for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Nigeria and Benin. With the Zimbabwean Premier Soccer League having just begun, there has been a delay in the squad announcement, but Billiat’s strong start could see him earn a recall.

Billiat’s debut marks a promising new chapter in his career, and with Scottland FC already making waves in the league, fans will be eager to see how the former CAF Champions League winner continues to influence the team’s success.
