Dikaba made his first cap for Congo DR national football team against Gabon on 25 March 2008.
Dikaba officially signed a short-term deal with Oldham Athletic on Friday 20 August 2010.[1] Oldham manager Paul Dickov said of Dikaba, "His attitude is spot on, he is hungry and a very good defender. And he also fits the bill in being a good age," [2]
He started his only game for the Latics against Bristol Rovers on 4 September 2010 playing on the right side of midfield.[3] He additionally made one additional appearance as a substitute in a Football League Trophy match.
On 18 October 2010 Dikaba was released from his Oldham contract having spent less than two months at the club. He had been injured on international duty and then had defied manager Paul Dickov's instructions to return to the club for treatment, opting to see his own Doctor in Paris.[4]
After three years playing for F91 Dudelange, Dikaba moved to CS Fola Esch[5]
