Will Ferry

Will Ferry of Dundee United was born in Bury, England on 7 December 2001 (age 24).

Will Ferry, a robust defender originally hailing from England, was born on the 7th of December 2001, making him a firm 24 years of age. He's primarily considered a left-back, currently rising up the ranks at Dundee United while standing at a respectable 5ft 8in (1.73m) and tipping the scales at approximately 11st (70kg). He has also shown his versatility on the international stage, having pulled on the Republic of Ireland jersey. This number 11 surely has a bright future ahead of him.

Desirability comes along with talent, and it seems Ferry's prowess on the pitch has caught the eye of many, with his current market value positioned around £675k, as indicated by Transfermarkt. His allegiance to Dundee United is secure for now, with his contract set to run for another 1 year and 7 months, expiring on 30 June 2027.

Before donning the Dundee United colours, Ferry's footballing journey saw him work his way through various clubs. He cut his teeth at Bury in the lower leagues of England in July 2016. The next step in his journey led him to the Championship side, Southampton, in July 2019, after Bury decided to let Ferry explore new pastures for an undisclosed fee.

Seeking further experience and exposure, Ferry was then loaned out to Crawley Town in the League Two in August 2021. A year later, in August 2022, Southampton arranged for another move, this time transferring him permanently to Cheltenham Town in the League Two. Ferry proved his worth during his time at Cheltenham Town, making 21 first team appearances in league matches in his debut 2022 - 2023 season.

Bid a farewell to England in July 2024, Ferry eyed a new challenge and crossed the border north to join Dundee United in the Premiership in Scotland. He has since held his own, making 35 first team appearances in league matches in his 2024 - 2025 season. As for the ongoing 2025 - 2026 season, he has played 13 times so far. In addition, he stepped up to the plate in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 and Conference League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026, starting once and four times respectively for Dundee United.
