International career

He was called up at Albania national under-19 football team by coach Arjan Bellaj to participate in the 2016 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification from 12 to 17 November 2015,[6] but since Rey Manaj was called up at the Albania national football team by coach Gianni De Biasi, Bardhi was called up as a replacement for Manaj at the Albania national under-21 football team by coach Redi Jupi for the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification match against Portugal U21 & Liechtenstein U21 on 12 & 16 November 2015.[7][8]

Following the absence of Fiorin Durmishaj for the 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification match against Iceland U21 on 10 October 2017 due to an injury, Bardhi was called up as a replacement by coach Alban Bushi, making his return at the Albania under-21 side after one year.[9]
