Last season, Boddien made 13 appearances in the U19 Bundesliga South/Southwest due to injury, scoring two goals and providing five assists.

Boddien featured in five matches in the 2022-2023 UEFA Youth League and was on target against Marseille in October 2022.

He represented the youth teams of Racing Parla CD and 1.Rödelheimer FC prior to his move to Eintracht Frankfurt in 2017.
