Club career
Growing up in Skodje, he started playing for Skodje IL as a child. He was a junior player for Aalesunds FK from 2015 to 2017, leaving to pursue a senior career in local SK Herd. He was picked up by newly promoted second-tier club Raufoss IL in 2019,[1] and after impressing there he was deemed good enough for Aalesund.[2]
He made his debut for Aalesund in July 2020 against Mjøndalen.[1]
On 19 February 2021, he signed a 3.5-year contract with Russian Premier League club FC Ufa.[3] He made his league debut for FC Ufa on 7 March 2021 in the away game against FC Ural Yekaterinburg, where he was sent-off just 14 minutes after start.
On 28 August 2021, Ufa announced his transfer to Vendsyssel FF in Denmark.[4]

In late 2019, Bizoza, while a Norwegian citizen, was also called up to the Burundi national football team.[5]
