Zimbabwe international Khama Billiat is considering offers from three clubs as he approaches the end of his current contract with Scottland FC on December 31.

Hardrock FC have entered the race for the 36-year-old forward, joining Scottland and Tanzanian side Azam FC in the pursuit of his signature ahead of the 2027 season.

Scottland are preparing a new contract proposal in an effort to keep their leading attacker in Harare. Azam FC have also made an offer, while Hardrock are working to persuade Billiat to join their project in Kwekwe.

The former Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns playmaker is weighing up the three proposals before deciding where he will continue his career.

Hardrock Target Billiat After Impressive Title Campaign

Hardrock’s interest comes during a successful season for the Kwekwe-based club, which is one victory away from securing the 2026 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League championship.

The team will be crowned champions if they defeat FC Platinum, coached by Thabo Senong, in their final match after the FIFA international break. The decisive fixture is scheduled to take place at Chahwanda Stadium.

Signing Billiat would strengthen Hardrock’s attacking options as they prepare for the possibility of competing at the top of Zimbabwean football beyond the current campaign.

The club has already started reinforcing its squad, having secured the services of promising Zimbabwean youngster Mongameli Tshuma.

Information reported by FARPost indicates that Billiat is a priority signing for Hardrock as they look to build their squad for 2027.

Scottland Prepare Contract Extension to Retain Their Star

Scottland are also working to secure Billiat’s future, with the club unwilling to lose one of its most influential players, particularly to a domestic rival.

Billiat joined the Harare club ahead of the 2025 season and played a major role in its historic Castle Lager Premier Soccer League title triumph during its first campaign in the top division.

The team was then coached by Tonderai Ndiraya.

The Zimbabwean forward has continued to contribute to Scottland’s title defence and their maiden CAF Champions League campaign this season.

His performances have made him a central figure in the club’s plans, with the proposed contract extension intended to keep him beyond the expiry of his current deal.

Azam FC Offer a Return to Football Outside Zimbabwe

Tanzanian club Azam FC are also pursuing Billiat and are seeking to bring him into their squad during the January transfer window.

The Chamazi-based side wants to strengthen its team for the second half of the Tanzanian Premier League season.

Azam believe Billiat’s experience in important matches and his ability to operate in different attacking roles could help them challenge the dominance of Young Africans and Simba SC in domestic football.

A move to Tanzania would give the former Betway Premiership player another opportunity to compete outside Zimbabwe, following his previous spells in South Africa.

Billiat Maintains Strong Scoring Form at 36

Despite being 36, Billiat remains among Scottland’s leading performers this season.

He has scored 11 league goals and provided several assists, placing him fourth in the Golden Boot standings, six goals behind the current leader.

His contributions have also helped Scottland reach the quarter-finals of the Chibuku Super Cup and the Munhumutapa Challenge Cup.

With his contract due to expire at the end of December, Billiat now faces a decision between staying with Scottland, joining Hardrock’s emerging project or accepting Azam FC’s offer in Tanzania.
