Photograph: Chloe BeresfordHaving played for his university side in Glasgow and for a Sunday League team in London, Ferguson was on the lookout for a club in Florence and CS Lebowski were his intended destination. Inspired by a friend who had read the team’s remarkable story, Ferguson contacted CS Lebowski through their Facebook page. Undeterred by losing their bid to retain their home at San Donnino, fan-owned CS Lebowski continue their programme of inclusion. They welcome everyone who wants to watch the team, have opened a school of football and now have an English player among their number.
