Harare – After a seven game absence, Sundowns want-away star Khama Billiat returned to score two sublime goals from similar set pieces – and this could signal his last days at Chloorkop.
In a bid to seal the gap, coach Pitso Mosimane has brought in New Zealand forward Jeremy Brockie and Uruguayan Gaston Sirino.
The South American is a potential replacement for Billiat‚ who may yet leave for Azerbaijan club Qarabag this January transfer window.
Billiat is in the final six months of his contract and Mosimane concedes that the 27-year-old could still exit the club during this January transfer window.

“It’s not in my hands, but what’s important is for us to have a back-up. We love Khama. If he stays‚ okay, but that’s between Khama and the agent as well as the board of Sundowns,” Mosimane said.
“My job is to ensure that the team keeps going and stays at the top of the log. The rest‚ I’m no longer part of it.”
Apart from Brockie and Sirino, Sundowns also signed Aubrey Ngoma, who came on as a 63rd minute replacement for Billiat in Saturday’s match. Billiat has scored five goals and created four assists this season, with his overall record at 43 goals in 129 matches.
While Mosimane has surrendered Billiat’s destiny to fate, it appears the story is different for another sought after Warriors striker Evans Rusike, who appears set to remain at Maritzburg United at least until June.
Now Billiat is on the verge of leaving and if the sentiments expressed by Mosimane after Saturday’s match are anything to go by, then the former Bafana Bafana coach seems to have already braced for life after the Zimbabwean.
