New Zealand great Dan Carter and two other players from French side Racing 92 are to take their case to the public prosecutor after confidential medical records were made public by media, the club has announced.

Carter, fellow former All Black Joe Rokocoko and Argentinian winger Juan Imhoff were the target of an investigation by the medical commission of the French Rugby Federation.

But the trio, as well as Racing's medical staff, were all cleared of any wrongdoing.

The club said in a statement that media reports had "blurred public perceptions of their players".

The statement added that they and the players have now decided to take action.
