Michalak has not figured in the French team since November 2001.
The 21-year-old said: "I'm thrilled at the prospect of participating in the French team's adventure, though I never got too worried about it - above all, I always try to enjoy myself on the field.
"I have been working very hard on my place kicking over the past few months and it seems like it's starting to pay off.
Michalak has caught the eye in the Heineken Cup this season, scoring two tries in six games. He has scored two penaly goals to make a total of 16-points.
He was awarded the Heineken man-of-the-match after his side's 30-9 victoty over Edinburgh in Round 3. Click here for the match report
