On the youth international stage, Ndenbe rose through the Belgian U-17 and U-18 teams before earning his Belgium U-21 debut in June 2021 for his first of five matches in 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying. He has started in each of the team’s last three games since Oct. 12, going the full 90 minutes in shutout wins over Denmark, Turkey and Scotland.

A native of Mouscron, Belgium, Ndenbe developed in the Royal Excel Mouscron academy before joining KV Oostende as a 17-year-old in 2017. He played 15 matches in three seasons with the club, featuring in the Belgian First Division A as well as the league’s playoff competition for the UEFA Europa League. MLS CAREER STATS
