'Billiat should be in Europe'

Cape Town - Mamelodi Sundowns legend Alex Bapela believes winger Khama Billiat deserves to play in Europe after some eye-catching displays in the Premiership.

Billiat has been one of the outstanding players in the star-studded Sundowns squad in the last few seasons.

The Zimbabwe international last season powered the Brazilians to the Premiership and Telkom Knockout title.

The 25-year-old has also been in sensational form that led Sundowns to semi-final qualification in the CAF Champions League.

"I don't know how he (Khama Billiat) is still here in South Africa. That guy could be playing anywhere in the world. He's so good, it's crazy," Bapela told Soccer Laduma.

"Sundowns are already in the semi-finals and it looks like they are developing, while other teams look to be on a decline. I think they will be able to beat the other team from Zambia (Zesco)."
