Career

[edit]

Kalabatama was born in Lusaka, Zambia, to Congolese parents. At the age of 5 his family moved to Norway. He made his senior debut for Bjørnevatn at the age of 12 on 25 June 2014. This resulted in him being banned from senior football until he reached 15, because he was too young.[3] In February 2020, he signed for Finnish Veikkausliiga side TPS.[4] He returned to Norway in January 2022, signing a two-year contract with Moss.[3]

On 3 August 2023, Ullensaker/Kisa announced the signing of Kalabatama.[5]
