Career



Oostende


Bushiri joined the youth academy of K.V. Oostende in 2012 after impressing in a provincial tournament representing Walloon Brabant.[2] He signed his first professional contract with Oostende in June 2017, for two years.[3] He made his professional debut in a 1-0 Belgian First Division A loss to KV Mechelen on 9 December 2017, becoming the youngest-ever debutant for Oostende.[4]


Norwich City


On 3 July 2019, it was announced that Bushiri would join Norwich City on a four-year deal, initially linking up with the U23 squad.[5] On 1 August 2019, Bushiri joined League One club Blackpool on a season-long loan deal.[6] Bushiri scored his first goal for the club in a 1-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers U21s in an EFL Trophy tie on 5 November 2019.[7]

On 30 June 2020, Bushiri went out on loan again, this time joining Mechelen on a season-long deal.[8]

On 26 January 2021, Bushiri moved to Belgium side KAS Eupen, on a loan deal until the end of the season.[9]


Hibernian


On 10 January 2022, Bushiri joined Scottish Premiership side Hibernian on loan for the remainder of the season, with an option to buy in the summer.[10] His number of appearances during the loan triggered that option, and he signed a three-year contract with Hibs in June 2022.[11]

After he played against Morton, whilst he was supposed to be suspended for receiving two cautions in earlier ties, Hibs were thrown out of the Scottish League Cup.[12]


Personal life


Bushiri was born in Belgium and is of Congolese descent.[13]
