Warriors and Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Khama Billiat has attracted interests from Zamalek of Egypt.
Billiat has long been linked with a move to the Egyptian Premier League.
However, this has failed to materialise and recently reports suggested Zamalek's bitter rivals Al Ahly, had also tabled an offer to lure the 27-year-old to the Cairo International Stadium.
Ahly showed interest in the player during the last winter transfer window but a deal collapsed after the Red Devils opted to sign Ivorian striker Souleymane Coulibaly.
Zamalek president Mortada Mansour told reporters yesterday that Billiat had agreed to join the club and are now waiting for the coach"s decision to finalise the deal.
"We received an offer concerning Billiat, but our decision to hire him depends on the opinion of team"s coach Mohamed Helmi," Mansour told reporters.
