Professional career
Likonza began his senior career with the Congolese club Mazembe in the Linafoot. He joined the Belgian club Standard Liège on a one-year loan with option to buy on 30 August 2021.[1] On 31 January 2022, the loan was terminated early without him making any appearances for Standard.[2] On July 23, 2024, USM Alger announced the recruitment of Glody Likonza who has signed for a period of three seasons. The Egyptian Zamalek SC and the Club Africain of Tunis tried to offer the services of the vice-captain of TP Mazembe, but the USMA was quicker in materializing with Likonza, while he was expected in Tunis to finalize his contract with the most popular club in Tunisia.[3][4]
