Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Willard Katsande has said Amakhosi lacked a player of Khama Billiat’s quality before the 27-year-old winger completed his move from Mamelodi Sundowns on Friday.

Billiat turned down a $450 000/year from Egyptian giants Zamalek and signed a three-year contract with the Soweto giants.

In an interview with The Herald, Katsande said Khama still had a chance to join European leagues.

“It’s a massive addition to us. We wanted someone who can have an impact,” said Katsande.

“His European chances are not yet over. He can still go after helping us win the league. Chiefs won’t hold on to players who want to go overseas,’’ Katsande said.

Billiat will also play alongside another Zimbabwean Teenage Hadebe who joined Chiefs in July last year.
