Mamelodi Sundowns are reportedly interested in securing the services of the livewire 22-year-old attacking player.

Reports from the transfer market grapevine indicate that the Brazilians are preparing to offer defender Clayton Daniels to Ajax as well as R10 million in exchange for the Zimbabwean player.

However, Ajax chief executive officer George Comitis said the Urban Warriors will not be entertaining any offers for Billiat’s signature.

“Khama is not for sale. He will be staying with us and there are no plans to release him to another club. He is not for sale,” Comitis told KickOff.com.

Comitis preferred not to go into particular details concerning the identity of the clubs that are interested in signing Billiat. It is common knowledge that the midfielder has been on the radar of many Premier League clubs for a long time now. Billiat, who is eager to follow in the footsteps of former teammate Thulani Serero, has previously told KickOff.com he will only consider offers from European clubs.
