Davide Favaro (born 7 May 1984) is a former Italian professional footballer.
Born in Mirano, Veneto, Davide Favaro started his career at A.C. Milan of Lombardy, where he played for five years from the 1998/99 to the 2002/2003 season. In his five years at A.C. Milan, Favaro scored 59 goals and was trained by world known coaches: in fact, in his first season Favaro was coached by Luca Gotti, in the second one by Fulvio Fiorin, in the third one by Davide Ballardini, in the fourth one by Mauro Tassotti, and in the last one by Franco Baresi. Unfortunately, on March 2003 he had a ligament rupture that didn't allow him to play until January 2004. In 2003, A.C. Milan swapped youth players with Internazionale and Parma. That season, Favaro (€1M), Marco Donadel (€2M), and Mirko Stefani (€1M) of Milan were swapped for Roberto Massaro (€2M), Filippo Porcari (€1M) and Luca Ferretti (€1M). All deals were co-ownership deals and Favaro signed a 5-year contract. He therefore played a season at Primavera Team, where he was again trained by his former coach Davide Ballardini as well as scoring 6 goals in only 12 matches. In June 2004, Parma bought the remaining rights of Favaro and Stefani, while Donadel was bought back by Milan and received in return the remaining rights for Porcari and Ferretti. He played for the Italy National Team at 2001 UEFA European Under-16 Football Championship qualifiers (now a U17 event).
