Escape Character causing issue in fetching user info

I'm trying to fetch member info using the globalName of users but if a globalName contains a escape character it fails to fetch the info.
[ 'GMDMCD', 'Adi\\_918' ]
[ 'GMDMCD', 'Adi\\_918' ]
let user = client.users.cache.find(user => user.globalName == racers[0]);
let user = client.users.cache.find(user => user.globalName == racers[0]);
for the first name this code is able to fetch member info but fails for second one.
