Albert Ferrer Llopis (Catalan pronunciation: [əɫˈβɛr fəˈre]; born 6 June 1970) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a right back, and a current coach.
Having represented local Barcelona for almost a decade, he went on to appear for England's Chelsea until his retirement. During his spell in his country he was nicknamed Chapi, and appeared in a total of 221 La Liga games during nine seasons.
A Spanish international on more than 30 occasions, Ferrer represented the nation in two World Cups and at the 1992 Olympic Games, winning the latter tournament. He started working as a manager in 2010, with Vitesse.
Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Ferrer was a pacy and tough-tackling defender. He began his professional career with FC Barcelona B, then served a loan with CD Tenerife in the 1989–90 season, with whom he made his La Liga debuts at the age of 19.
Ferrer returned to the main squad the following summer, and became the club's first-choice right back, remaining as such for the following eight years and scoring once. He often partnered another club graduate, Sergi Barjuán, in the defensive wings.
