Lekima Tagitagivalu

Fijian back-row forward Lekima Tagitagivalu, born on 4 December 1995, is on the books at Racing 92 in the Top 14. Based at the Paris La Defense Arena, Racing have built their modern squad around a mix of high-profile international signings and a developing core of younger talent, with a domestic and European profile that keeps the club at the sharp end of the French rugby calendar. Tagitagivalu's profile is built on the traits that have long defined Fijian back-row play: physical carrying, explosive footwork in contact and the athletic qualities that allow forwards to bring genuine impact in the loose. The Top 14's physicality and heavily rotated week-to-week squad demands place a premium on forwards who can contribute across multiple back-row roles. Fijian forwards have become an increasingly valued part of the Top 14 landscape in recent years, bringing a dynamic edge to traditional French forward packs. For Tagitagivalu, the role within Racing's setup is to bring that physical impact across matchday squads, support the team's depth in the back row and contribute to the club's ambitions in both the Top 14 and European competition.
