He then came to prominence when he signed for Hereford United ahead of the 2014-15 season, a number of impressive performances even drew the attentions of Cardiff City and Birmingham City, where he spent periods on trial with both. Following the demise and subsequent folding of Hereford United in December 2014, Bilal signed for Leamington for the remainder of the season.

Yafai had a loan spell with Hinckley in February 2016, before a return to Rushall Olympic in March 2016.
