He represented France at the 2020 European Men's Handball Championship[3][4] and at the 2024 European Men's Handball Championship, where he won gold medals with France.

At the 2024 European Championship he scored a sensational but controversial last second goal in the semifinal against Sweden, that the European Handball Federation later admitted, should not have counted. The Swedish national team made a formal complaint after the match, which was however rejected by EHF.[5]
