Egyptian giants Zamalek president, Mortada Mansour, says that his club have agreed terms with Warriors superstar Khama Billiat to join the Cairo giants in the next season, adding that he is waiting for coach’s decision to finalise the deal.
“We received an offer concerning Billiat, but our decision to hire him depends on the opinion of team’s coach Mohamed Helmi,” Mansour told reporters in Cairo on Monday.
The 27-year-old was instrumental in Sundowns’ triumphant campaign in the Champions League that saw the South African side win their first continental title ever.
He narrowly missed the CAF African player of the year award to teammate Dennis Onyango.
He has been a dominant figure for the Warriors and played a big role in helping Warriors qualify for AFCON 2017. He also impressed during the AFCON finals despite a dismal performance by the Warriors in Gabon.
Billiat’s future has been a subject of interest, with Europe also a possible destination. Meanwhile, reports from South Africa suggest that Sundowns are preparing a huge offer to tie the player in Pretoria.
