Instead of returning to Ostend, he joined the newly promoted Norwich City in the Premier League in early July 2019 . A few weeks later, Bushiri was awarded to Blackpool FC , where he only came to four point games.

In the remainder of the 2019/21 season until it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic , Bushiri played seven out of eight possible games for St. Truiden. He only had to pause in one game due to a suspension after a yellow-red card.
At the end of the season he initially returned to Norwich. A new loan to Belgium was then agreed for the 2020/21 season, this time to league competitor KV Mechelen .
