Former Serie A and La Liga forward Fernando Forestieri has signed for National League South side Oxford City, marking a remarkable descent from elite European football to the non-league pyramid.

The 36-year-old Argentine-born Italian winger previously played for clubs including Udinese, Watford, Sheffield Wednesday, and Boca Juniors, and has shared the pitch with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo during his time in Italy and Spain.

Forestieri's move was confirmed on November 6, 2026, as the club aims to bolster its attack for the remainder of the season.
