Alexandre Albouy is a French rugby union player, currently playing for the Top 14 team Castres Olympique. A scrum-half, Albouy went through the different levels of Castres ? his home town ? youth teams before signing his first professional contract in 1998. On 2 February 2002, aged 22, he made his debut for the French national team during the 33?12 victory against Italy. As such, he took part in France's Grand Slam that year, but this cap turned out to be his last. Nonetheless, he enjoyed a successful club career in Castres, with whom he won the European Shield in 2003. In 2006, he decided to switch clubs and joined French giants Stade Fran�ais. He struggled in his first season there and was used mostly as a substitute behind Agust�n Pichot and J�r�me Fillol, and therefore did not play a major role in Stade Fran�ais's title. After two more lukewarm seasons in the French capital, he returned to Castres at the start of the 2009?10 season. [More at Wikipedia]
