  • Jonathan Wisniewski

  • Mahamadou Diaby
  • Fabrice Estebanez

Racing alumni are one of the largest groups in the current FCG roster

Many players from FCG and Racing 92 have worn the jerseys of the other club. One of the most emblematic, and the oldest, is Patrick Mesny. If the French international has long worn the "Rouge & Bleu" jersey, he has also evolved during a season with the colors of Racing Club de France in the late 1970s. Alain Guilbert also played for both clubs in the The 1970s.

More recently, Fabrice Landreau, Thomas Bianchin, Olivier Beaudon, Darren Adams, Mathieu Lorée and Nicolas Bézy have played for both clubs. From 1995 to 2002, Patrick Goirand played for the Racing Club de France, the US Métro, and then the Racing Métro 92.

Former FCG player, Didier Camberabero coached Racing during a season, while Pierre Trémouille trained the backs of both clubs in the early 2000s.

In the current Racing squad, only James Hart, who landed this summer in Colombes, played for the FCG between 2011 and 2016. On the Grenoble side, no less than four players have played at Racing 92: Jonathan Wisniewswki, between 2007 and 2014, Fabrice Estbebanez between 2011 and 2014, Walter Desmaison between 2013 and 2015 and Mahamadou Diaby during the 2012-2013 season.
