Hardrock FC have officially joined the race to sign Scottland FC talisman Khama Billiat, leaving the Zimbabwean star with three major options on the table ahead of his contract expiry on 31 December.
The 36-year-old Zimbabwe international finds himself at a major career crossroads as ambitious Kwekwe outfit Hardrock push aggressively to lure him away from Harare for the 2027 season.
However, Scottland are preparing a fresh contract extension to retain their star attacker, while Tanzanian giants Azam FC—as previously reported by FARPost—have also tabled an offer to tempt the former Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns playmaker back abroad.
Billiat is currently weighing up all three proposals before making a final decision on his next move.
HARDROCK FC MAKING BIG MOVES ON THE MARKET
Hardrock’s pursuit comes as little surprise given their remarkable rise this campaign, with the Kwekwe-based side sitting just one victory away from clinching the 2026 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League title.
They will be crowned champions if they defeat Thabo Senong’s FC Platinum after the FIFA international break in a season finale clash at Chahwanda Stadium. Landing Billiat would serve as a massive statement of intent, signalling that Hardrock are building a squad capable of sustained dominance rather than a one-off title triumph.
Information reaching FARPost indicates that Hardrock have made Billiat a priority target for 2027 and are pushing hard to convince him to spearhead their next chapter. The club has already begun bolstering its attacking depth after securing the signature of one of Zimbabwe’s brightest prospects, Mongameli Tshuma.
Scottland, meanwhile, are reluctant to lose their most influential figure—particularly to a direct domestic title rival.
Billiat joined the Harare outfit ahead of the 2025 campaign and immediately powered them to a historic Castle Lager Premier Soccer League title in their debut top-flight season under then-coach Tonderai Ndiraya. He has remained central to their title defence and maiden CAF Champions League campaign this term.
AZAM FC OFFER BILLIAT THE TANZANIA ROUTE
Outside Zimbabwe, Azam FC are also pushing to land the former Betway Premiership star. The Chamazi-based club is eager to secure Billiat’s services during the January transfer window to strengthen their squad for the second half of the Tanzanian Premier League season.
Azam view his big-match pedigree and versatility as vital weapons in their bid to break the domestic stranglehold of Young Africans and Simba SC. For Billiat, a move to Tanzania offers an intriguing opportunity to test himself outside Zimbabwe once more following his decorated spells in South Africa.
Even at 36, Billiat continues to deliver at an elite level. He leads Scottland’s scoring charts with 11 league goals alongside a string of assists—placing him fourth in the Golden Boot race, six goals behind the leader—while also guiding the club to the quarter-finals of both the Chibuku Super Cup and the Munhumutapa Challenge Cup.
