Chiefs sweat over Billiat injury

Kaizer Chiefs coach Ernst Middendorp hopes that Khama Billiat's injury is not too serious and that his star will be available for Saturday’s clash against Baroka FC.


Billiat sustained an injury in last Sunday’s Nedbank Cup quarterfinal clash against Cape Town City.

The Zimbabwean international was replaced in the 64th minute after a bad tackle from Edmilson Dove.

“I hope it’s not too bad. We will get the full picture from our medical team. Hopefully, a bit of rest will settle the pain,” Middendorp told Chiefs’ official website.

Middendorp added that Billiat will rest to wear off the injury, but he hopes that he joins the team at training before the Baroka clash.
