Career

Club career

He started his career at the Feyenoord Rotterdam youth team but signed his first professional contract with RKC Waalwijk in 2002 after rejecting a move on loan to Excelsior Rotterdam. In Waalwijk he played 84 matches in three seasons and scored 12 goals. In 2005 he moved to Sparta Rotterdam, where he became 'club top goalscorer' with 8 goals in the 2005-2006 season. He has recently rejected a new contract at Sparta. He said that the main reason was the lack of first team football as he was constantly used as a sub. On August 2, 2007 he signed a contract for two years with VVV-Venlo.

Since then, he joined De Graafschap in 2008, but when it was clear that the club relegated to the Jupiler League, Oost dissolved his contract with De Graafschap. As a free agent, Oost was on trial with N.E.C. but failed to impress, and left without getting a contract. Nevertheless, Oost was offered a contract with Belgian second division side, KVSK United. He signed, and played as a striker for that team.

Private life

He is the son of Jeffrey Oost, the manager of the Feyenoord C1 youth team.
