Dean Gorré (born 10 September 1970 in Paramaribo) is a Surinamese football coach and former player.

Playing career

Gorré made his debut on 20 April 1988 for SVV. He also went on to play for the merger club SVV/Dordrecht’90, as well as at Feyenoord, FC Groningen, Ajax, Huddersfield Town, Barnsley and Blackpool.

Coaching and management career

In 2008–09, he was the assistant first-team coach at Southampton, after previously occupying the same role at Stoke City.[1]

Gorré's son, Kenji Gorré, is a Swansea City player.

In January 2012, he was appointed head coach at RBC Roosendaal.[2] Despite a string of negative results during his tenure at the club, the club avoided direct relegation by the end of the season; this was however made redundant later in June after the club was declared bankrupt due to financial troubles.

Gorré had a spell as a youth coach at Ajax before being appointed Scotland national under-17 football team coach in February 2012. He had worked previously with Scottish FA performance director Mark Wotte at Southampton.[3] He left this post for personal reasons in March 2013.[4]

In December 2014 Dean Gorré was appointed head coach of the new proposed professional National squad of his native country Suriname.[5] On February 2015, the appointment was made permanent.
