Oblak, on the Quest for a Historic Zamora
Our Jan Oblak is on the verge of making history! The Slovenian goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid is seeking his sixth Zamora trophy, an unprecedented achievement in La Liga. He currently shares the record of five Zamoras with legends like Antoni Ramallets and Víctor Valdés.
After a decade defending the Rojiblanca goal, Oblak has far surpassed the challenge of succeeding Courtois, establishing himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
This season, with an average of 0.70 goals conceded per game, Oblak is positioning himself as a serious contender for the Zamora, once again demonstrating his quality and consistency between the posts.
His excellent performance reflects the great work of goalkeeping coach Pablo Vercellone, who already guided Courtois to this recognition. But Oblak’s ambition is not limited to the individual.
He is also about to climb the list of players with the most appearances in Atlético’s history, approaching emblematic figures like Tomás Reñones. With his commitment, seriousness, and self-criticism, Oblak has become a fundamental pillar of the team, a silent leader who is always there to defend our colors and lead us to victory. Come on, Jan, go for the sixth Zamora and many more successes with our Atleti!
