Career[edit]

College and amateur[edit]

After playing with the Colorado Rapids academy from the under-15's,[1] Mushagalusa went on to play one year of college soccer at Salt Lake Community College in 2018, where he scored 27 goals in 17 appearances.[2] He had previously committed to play at Fort Lewis College.[3]

In 2017 and 2018, Mushagalusa played in the USL PDL with Colorado Rapids U23 and tallied a total of 53 goals in 85 U.S. Soccer Development Academy appearances with the Rapids Academy.[4][5]

Professional[edit]

Mushagalusa was set to continue playing college soccer at the University of South Carolina in 2020, but instead opted to opted to sign a professional contract with USL Championship side Sporting Kansas City II on February 26, 2020.[6] He made his professional debut on March 8, 2020, appearing as a 60th-minute substitute in a 1–2 loss to Charlotte Independence.[7]

On 18 January 2022, Mushagalusa signed with Louisville City.[8] On 12 July 2022, Mushagalusa was named USL Championship Player of the Week for Week 18 of the 2022 season, after scoring his first career hat trick in a 6–0 victory over New York Red Bulls II.[9]

In July 2023, Louisville City loaned Mushagalusa to San Diego Loyal in a transaction that saw Kyle Adams join Louisville on a full-time basis.[10] Louisville City recalled Mushagalusa from the loan ahead of the September 22 roster freeze, making him eligible for the 2023 playoffs.[11]

On December 20, 2023, Mushagalusa signed for Hartford Athletic.[12]
