Mickaël Buscher (born 11 January 1987) is a French professional footballer who plays as a striker and winger for Canterbury United.

Buscher was born in Landerneau, Finistère, while his father, former French international Gérard Buscher, was a player for nearby Brest. Buscher began his football career in the youth system at OGC Nice where his father was on the coaching staff. While a junior with Nice, he played for France at under-16 and under-17 level, and was called up to the under-18s. He played regularly for the reserves in the Championnat de France Amateurs for three seasons from 2004–05 to 2006–07, but never broke through to the first team.

Following a trial with Gretna, newly promoted to the Scottish Premier League, Buscher was released by Nice and signed a three-year contract with the club in August 2007. He scored his only goal for the club during a 4–2 win over Kilmarnock in early 2008. Following the financial troubles at Gretna, he was made redundant when the club folded and in March 2008 he joined fellow SPL side Hearts on a trial basis. However after spending time with the Edinburgh club he could not convince them to offer him a contract and he departed the club.

On 11 November 2008 he was handed a trial by English club Grimsby Town with a view to a permanent move, Buscher signed a contract with the club on 2 December joining fellow Frenchman Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro at the club until the end of the 2008–09 season. However Buscher's time at Grimsby was not a memorable one, as he failed to make a single appearance for the club's first team, as well as this, Bushcer also failed to make even the substitute bench. His only appearances for Grimsby came in the club's reserve team, managed by Stuart Watkiss. Manager Mike Newell commented saying that he had made a mistake when signing Buscher, and this was the reason that the player was never used in his 7-month stay at Blundell Park On 5 May 2009 Buscher's contract was cancelled ahead of schedule by mutual consent.
