David Bell (born 21 January 1984, Kettering) is an English-born Irish professional footballer. He plays as a midfielderfor Luton Town. He previously played for Rushden & Diamonds and also had a brief trial with Middlesbrough F.C..
He is a midfielder who has played mostly in the center and on the right side during the 2006/07 season for Luton. He was given a contract extension, running through to 2010.
At the end of season awards, David won the Internet Player Of The Season and Young Supporters Player Of The Season - an achievement few fans believed possible at the start of the season, as Bell had not even broken into the starting lineup yet at the season's beginning.
The 2006/07 season was very much a breakthrough season for him as he went from a squad player at Luton to one of the club's key players under Mike Newell and Kevin Blackwell.
On Friday March 28th 2008, it was revealed that he had joined Leicester City on loan with a view to a permanent transfer.[1]
