Grenoble Foot 38 is a French football club representing the city of Grenoble, currently competing in Ligue 2, the second tier of French football. The club plays its home matches at the Stade des Alpes. Founded in 1997 following the dissolution of the original club, GF38 wears blue and white. The club's history has been one of resurgence, climbing from the amateur divisions to reach Ligue 1 for a brief but memorable spell in the 2008-09 season. That era, under manager Mehmed Baždarević, marked the club's peak in the modern era, featuring players like Sofiane Feghouli. Since then, Grenoble has primarily been a Ligue 2 side, focusing on consolidation and building a sustainable project. The club is known for its strong community ties and the picturesque setting of its stadium against the Alpine backdrop. The supporters, though fewer in number than some giants, are dedicated, creating a vibrant atmosphere as the club strives for stability and another chance at the top flight.
