[edit] History
The club was founded in 1892 as Football Club de Grenoble. In 1997, a merger of Olympique Grenoble Isère and Norcap Olympique led to the Grenoble Foot 38 incarnation. Olympique Grenoble Isère was played in Ligue 1 in seasons of 1960-61 and 1962-63.
It was acquired in 2004 by the Japanese enterprise Index which soon built it a new stadium, Stade des Alpes, that registered an initial capacity of 20,000, and which was opened on February 2008, after which it achieved promotion to Ligue 1 in the 2008-09 season.[1]
