The French water polo has made several big steps towards the European top, both in the national teams’ and clubs’ competitions.
Ugo Crousillat is the leader and the captain of the French national team that won 4th place in the World League and 6th place at the European Championship. An excellent left-handed goal-getter is one of the key players of the best French club Marseille. Crousillat won LEN Euro Cup with Marseille, but he was also a Champions League winner. He lifted the trophy in the best competitions for clubs in 2017, playing for Szolnok.
Crousillat has one silver medal from the World Championships in his treasury as a member of the Montenegrin national team.
