Oxford have signed striker Jonathan Obika following his recent departure from Swindon.
Obika, 26, has agreed a two-year contract and is new U's head coach Pep Clotet's first signing at the club.
"We have a really good recruitment team here and Jon is someone the club has been monitoring for a while," Clotet told the club's official website.
"He has great pedigree, is able to play in a number of positions and gives us options up front, so we are very pleased that he has agreed to join us."
Obika started out at Tottenham and had a number of loan spells away from Spurs before he signed a permanent deal with Swindon in 2014.
He turned down the offer of a new deal at Swindon, for whom he scored six goals in 31 appearances last season.
