Rumoured Kaizer Chiefs target Walter Musona is in great form for his country. Here’s a recap of what’s been going down in Afcon qualification with Khama Billiat also in the thick of things for Zimbabwe.
Walter Musona bags a brace
Zimbabwe claimed a 3-1 over Namibia in their most recent Afcon Group J qualifier. That follows a 1-0 win in Orlando over the same opponents. In the 3-1 victory, Walter Musona scored twice to steer his side to a critical three points. Walter is the brother of former Kaizer Chiefs star Knowledge Musona. Walter is currently on the books of Simba Bhora FC. Amakhosi were linked with a swoop for Walter in the latter stages of 2023 but nothing materialized in their chase for the former Polokwane City marksman.
Billiat is back to his best
Speaking of former Chiefs attackers, Khama Billiat is excited to return to South Africa after stints with Ajax Cape Town, Mamelodi Sundowns, and The Glamour Boys. The Zimbabwe forward scored the winner for his country against Namibia at Orlando Stadium and they followed that result up with a 3-1 success over Namibia at home. Zimbabwe now top Group J of Afcon qualifying and Billiat is a key figure. The 34-year-old has been in fine form for Yadah FC in his homeland, which has seen him earn a much-deserved return to the international fold. The 2016 Caf Champions League and three-time Betway Premiership winner now has 17 goals in 51 caps.
He’s opened up on his Chiefs exit and it’s quite an eye-opening revelation.
The striker search continues
30-year-old Michael Olunga bagged a hat-trick in the first match of this season’s Qatar Stars League. In his entire club career, he’s scored a stunning tally of 188 goals in 250 matches. In his last 61 league matches in Qatar, he’s scored a ludicrous 62 goals. No matter who you’re playing for, a scoring rate of more than a goal per game is absurd. Are Chiefs plotting an audacious move for the Kenyan legend?
Do you think Khama Billiat still has the minerals to play in the Betway Premiership?
