Oscar Alfredo Ustari (born 3 July 1986) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays for UD Almería in La Liga, as a goalkeeper.
He has also played internationally for Argentina, being included in their squad for the 2006 FIFA World Cup and their victory at the 2008 Olympics, with two senior caps.
Club career
Born in América, Buenos Aires Province, Ustari arrived in Club Atlético Independiente's youth system at the age of 14. The untimely deaths of club players Emiliano Molina and Lucas Molina (both playing in his position) propelled him to the first team sooner than expected,[1] and he made his first division debut on 5 October 2005 in a 2–0 win against Newell's Old Boys, remaining first-choice with the Avellaneda side in the following tournaments, under both Jorge Burruchaga and Miguel Ángel Santoro (both former players with the club, the latter also a goalkeeper).
On 10 June 2007 Ustari scored from a penalty kick against Quilmes Atlético Club, also leaving the pitch injured and going on to miss the year's Copa América. One month later, he signed for Getafe CF in Spain for €4 million,[2] teaming up with compatriot – and goalkeeper – Roberto Abbondanzieri; his official debut came on 26 September 2007, in a 1–2 La Liga loss at Valencia CF.
Ustari struggled during his spell with the Madrid outfit, due to inconsistent performances and several injury problems.[3][4] On 17 July 2012, after a 14-month lay-off due to the latter, he rescinded his contract which still had another year running.[5]
On 25 July 2012 Ustari returned to his country, signing for Boca Juniors.[6] He moved back to Spain the following year, however, joining UD Almería which had just returned to the top flight.[7]
International career
Ustari played all the matches for the Argentine under-20 team that won the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship in the Netherlands.[8] On 15 May 2006, he was named by senior side coach José Pekerman – his former manager in the national youth teams – for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, alongside future Getafe teammate Abbondanzieri, being an unused squad member.
Ustari also started the victorious campaign of the Argentina Olympic football team at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing,[8] but suffered a severe foot injury in the quarterfinals against Holland, being sidelined for eight months.[9]
