Kevin Mondeko’s situation at USM Alger has become increasingly concerning, as the Congolese defender has not featured in the squad since October 18. Initially a regular starter after joining the Algerian club, Mondeko has seen his role diminish, leading to his absence from recent matchday sheets.
Reports suggest injuries may have sidelined him, though the club has not issued an official statement confirming any physical issues.
Mondeko was present at training on October 30, but his prolonged absence has raised questions about his fitness and future with the team.
In contrast, his compatriot and fellow defender Glody Likonza has flourished, becoming a cornerstone of USM Alger’s defense since his arrival alongside Mondeko last summer from TP Mazembe.
Mondeko’s situation highlights the challenges faced by players adapting to new leagues and the competitive dynamics within teams.
Whether due to injury or tactical decisions, the Congolese international will be eager to regain his place and prove his value at the club.
