David Ferrère (born 30 May 1974 in Saint-Denis, Réunion) is a retired French footballer. He last played as a midfielder for FC Avirons.

Career

Ferrère began his youth career with RC Paris before joining AS Beauvais as a sixteen-year-old at the start of the 1990s. Spending the majority of the decade with Beauvais, he moved on to CS Louhans-Cuiseaux in 1999, spending two years with the side. In early 2002, Ferrère joined Scottish side Motherwell, scoring a hat-trick on his debut during his short-term stay at Fir Park. Returning to France, Ferrère played with Entente Sannois Saint-Gratien, FC Dieppe, SS Excelsior before joining FC Avirons.

Motherwell

After being released by CS Louhans-Cuiseaux in 2001, Ferrère was unable to find a new club and had been training with FC Metz. Motherwell manager Eric Black, who was previously a Metz player, became aware of Ferrère's availability and signed him on an 18-month contract. Ferrère played in ten Scottish Premier League matches and scored three goals for Motherwell, all of them coming in a hat-trick on his debut, as a second-half substitute, against Hibernian.[1] [2]

Ferrère was one of the 19 players made redundant when Motherwell entered administration less than three months later.[3]
