Wall Street businessman Thomas Anthony Guerriero has been named the new director and president of Blue Square Bet North club Oxford City.
Guerriero, the founder of WMX Group Holdings, has set his sights on guiding the club into the Football League.

"I've felt as confident in this as I have with anything in my career. Anything is possible."
Harvard-educated Guerriero has interests in sport in the United States, having taken control of Springfield Armor in the National Basketball Association (NBA) D league in 2011.

He added: "This a new era in the history of Oxford City Football Club and puts the foundation in place for a sustained and exciting future."
