Luis Fernando Vergara Meyland (born 13 May 1970 in Santiago, Chile) is a retired Chilean football forward, who was nicknamed El Zamorano de los Pobres during his career. He is currently coaching San Marcos de Arica.

Vergara obtained a total number of six caps for the Chilean national team, scoring three goals between 1996 and 1997.

Following his playing career, Vergara became a football manager and led C.D. Huachipato to the quarter-finals in the 2008 Torneo Clausura.

In 1997, he had a trial with English Premier League club Crystal Palace and then had talks with Everton, but nothing came of either of these approaches and Vergara never played a competitive game in England.
