Club career

Born in Kinshasa, N'tsunda started playing professionally in South Africa, with Orlando Pirates FC. In 1994, aged 19, he moved to FC Porto in Portugal, but never appeared officially for the club, going on to resume his career in the country's second division, first with F.C. Penafiel on loan.

N'tsunda made his Primeira Liga debut in the 1996–97 season, scoring two goals in 28 games for G.D. Chaves to help the northerners finish in tenth position. On 30 January 1998 he came from the bench to net twice in a 3–2 home win against Sporting Clube de Portugal and, in March, signed for fellow league side Vitória de Guimarães, where he appeared rarely due to injury.

After one year in Germany with lowly TuS Koblenz, N'tsunda returned to Portugal and its second level, appearing with little impact for S.C. Freamunde. He subsequently competed in division three with F.C. Famalicão, finishing his career at only 29 with SuperSport United F.C. in South Africa.

gollark: Rob Pike even attacked *syntax highlighting* for being childish.
gollark: I mean, they're gaining generics *now*, very late, but they just have this apious attitude of disregarding every development in computing in the last 50 years and claiming it's because programmers can't be trusted to use them right.
gollark: lol no generics
gollark: Hmm. quintopia is older than I thought. Troubling.
