==Youth academy== FC Metz also gained recognition in France and Europe for its successful youth academy, which produced star players including: [[Rigobert Song]], [[Robert Pires]], [[Louis Saha]], [[Emmanuel Adebayor]], [[Papiss Cissé]], [[Miralem Pjanić]], [[Kalidou Koulibaly]], and [[Sadio Mané]]. The city's proximity to Luxembourg (about 55 km) plays a significant role in the importation of young prospects. The club's board has close ties with the Luxembourgish Football Federation. [[Nico Braun|Nicolas "Nico" Braun]], the team's top all-time goalscorer, as well as Pjanić or more recently [[Chris Philipps]], have played in the G-D's amateur leagues before joining "les Grenats". Despite this, not all Luxembourgers enjoy success with Metz, with Robert "Robby" Langers as the best example.
