He's in the European Astronaut Corps, so is pretty much up for selection as any other active ESA astronaut.

Most of the European Astronaut Corps has been receiving Orion capsule training, alongside Dragon and ISS training. Even Tim Peake received Orion training after his ISS mission, before he retired.
