Rugby playing career
Club

International career
Jalibert previously represented France in the U20 Rugby World Cup.
Jalibert was called up to the French national team for the first time ahead of France's opening 2018 Six Nations Championship match against Ireland, aged only 19, after 15 league appearances for Bordeaux Bègles.[2][3] He started in that game but had to come off in the 29th minute for Anthony Belleau due to a serious knee injury, which required a head injury assessment, in an eventual 13–15 home loss.[4]
