Oblak: Legend at the Metropolitano, Record in Sight
Jan Oblak, the undisputed best goalkeeper in Atlético’s history, continues to prove why he is a Rojiblancos legend. Despite criticism questioning his performance, the Slovenian has silenced his detractors with memorable performances, such as the display against Rayo, where Isi suffered his quality.
The second Colchoneros captain is one step away from making history, fighting for his sixth Zamora Trophy, an unprecedented milestone in LaLiga. Simeone compared him to Messi after his performance at Anfield in 2020, where he was crucial for the team.
Now, Oblak is competing for the Zamora against Courtois and Soria, seeking to surpass Ramallets and Valdés and consolidate himself as the top winner of the trophy. Although he has always prioritized collective titles, the Zamora represents recognition of his consistency and quality between the posts.
With a contract until 2028, Oblak has the firm intention of continuing to defend Atlético’s goal and breaking records. Although in the past he felt interested in the Premier League, he rejected offers from clubs such as Chelsea or Manchester United to continue his successful career at the Metropolitano. His commitment to the club is undeniable, despite the economic challenges facing the institution. Oblak, with his star salary, remains a fundamental pillar and a life insurance for Atlético.
