2013

Unfortunately that was brought to an end in the 1–0 win over Arsenal, when he sustained nerve damage to his hamstring which kept him out of action. He returned to the Everton side for the FA Cup 4th round replay defeat against Chelsea. In April 2006 Everton FC manager David Moyes was talking about the summer transfer campaign on evertonfc.com and said that based on player performance he had already decided which players he wanted to keep.

On 1 March 2012, the Impact formally announced that he had signed with the club for the 2012 season. On 11 May 2013, in a game against Real Salt Lake, Ferrari scored an own goal in the 7th minute to give RSL an early 1–0 lead. However, he redeemed himself by scoring a 93rd-minute winner in an eventual 3–2 win. That would turn out to be the only goal Ferrari scored for the Impact.

2011

In the 2010–11 season, Ferrari's play with the first team squad was limited under manager Bernd Schuster and also Ferrari suffered a serious injury in the match against Bursaspor and was absent for two months. After some disputes, Ferrari notified the club to terminate the contract. In his point of view, the club had breached the contract after not allowing him to train with the team in pre-season. The club also notified Ferrari on his AWOL from training, which the club reserved the rights to unilaterally terminate the contract. Following the release, both the player and the club filed lawsuit against each other for breach of contract.
