In the long jump qualifying rounds at the 2010 European Athletics Championships, he cleared a European junior record distance of 8.27 m to top the rankings.[4] He failed to repeat that form in the final round, finishing eighth, but his jump remained the best of that year's tournament with the sole exception of Christian Reif's championship record effort of 8.47 m.[5] It was also the second best mark by any European athlete that year, ranking him in the top eight of the discipline worldwide in 2010.[6][7]
