In July 2016, Kasongo had a short trial at Saint-Étienne, but they didn't give him a contract and his Visa in France expired, forcing him to join Al Ittihad one month later.
He made his debut for Democratic Republic of the Congo national football team on 18 November 2018 in an African Cup of Nations qualifier against Congo and scored a goal on his debut in a 1–1 draw.[1]
