BIO
Albert Dikwa returns to Riverhounds SC for his fourth season in 2023.
2022 was a breakout season for Dikwa, who recorded career-best totals of 11 goals and four assists while appearing in 33 of 34 regular-season matches for the Hounds. He also earned his first USL Championship Player of the Week honor with his first career two-goal game against FC Tulsa.
In his first complete season with the Hounds in 2021, Dikwa posted two goals and three assists, but he was limited to just 15 games and missed most of the second half of the season with an injury. Dikwa first joined the team midway through the 2020 season and netted three goals in his six appearances.
He came to Pittsburgh from Saint Louis FC, where he recorded 44 appearances and four goals for the club from 2018-19. He also started the club’s first-ever playoff match in the Western Conference Quarterfinals.
Dikwa began his professional career signing with Orlando City B directly out of high school in 2017. He posted three goals and two assists in his first pro season. In his youth career and early days as a pro, the Garoua, Cameroon native also made six appearances for the Cameroon U-20 National Team.
