For Lens in Ligue 1, Clauss had a fantastic 2021–22 season. The 29-year-old made 37 appearances in the French league, participating in five goals and 11 assists.
He also made his French national team debut in March of this year thanks to his performance from the previous season. Clauss has currently received four caps for France. During the just-completed international break, he was also a member of their UEFA Nations League team.
