Club

[edit]

Ntibazonkiza started to play football at Vital'O. As an asylum seeker, he came to the Netherlands in 2005.[2] NEC was the nearest professional football club, and because of that, he trained with their youth team. Eventually, NEC signed him on a permanent deal. At the beginning of the 2006–07 season, he began playing for the youth team, but was shortly thereafter promoted to the first-team squad. On 18 November 2006, against Sparta Rotterdam, Ntibazonkiza played his first game in the Eredivisie.[3] After receiving a Dutch residence permit, Ntibazonkiza signed a contract binding him to NEC until the summer of 2009. He also signed another contract extension until 2012 in January 2009.[4]

On 10 February 2017, Ntibazonkiza signed for Kazakhstan Premier League club Kaysar Kyzylorda.[5]

After being released by Kaysar Kyzylorda, Ntibazonkiza returned to his first club, Burundian side Vital'O.[6]
