Oblak, a Rojiblanco Legend: A Historic Figure at Atlético
Our Jan Oblak continues to grow his legend at Atlético de Madrid! Last Sunday, against FC Barcelona, the Slovenian goalkeeper reached the impressive figure of 483 official matches defending our colors, thus equaling Tomás Reñones as the third player with the most appearances in the club’s history.
Since his debut on September 16, 2014 against Olympiacos, Oblak has become a fundamental pillar of the team and an idol for the fans. Now, only Adelardo Rodríguez (553 matches) and Koke Resurrección (672 matches) surpass him in this prestigious ranking.
In his eleventh season as a Rojiblanco, Oblak has played 360 matches in LaLiga, 94 in the Champions League and 18 in the Copa del Rey, among other tournaments. His record with Atlético is enviable: a Spanish Super Cup (2014-15), a Europa League (2017-18), a European Super Cup (2018-19) and a LaLiga title (2020-21).
In addition, he has won five Zamora trophies (2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19, 2020-21), equaling the record of Antoni Ramallets and Víctor Valdés. His unbeaten record in the 2015-16 season, with a ratio of 0.47 goals conceded per game, is a milestone in the history of LaLiga, shared with Francisco Liaño. Great, Jan!
