Historic Oblak: LaLiga MVP, fifth Zamora, the title …

Oblak has had an unforgettable year. Atlético's Slovenian goalkeeper will never forget a season that has been historic both individually and as a team. LaLiga chose the goalkeeper as the MVP of the championship, one more achievement for a goalkeeper who is already on vacation and that he achieved his great dream of winning the rojiblanco league title. Oblak was chosen as the best soccer player in the league tournament ahead of players like Messi or Luis Suárez, for example. In the first part of the championship he was not very active, but in the second round he was reminiscent of the one from previous seasons. And he was especially successful in decisive matches. Also in the kicks from the penalty spot.

At 28, this award is the perfect culmination of an exceptional season. The goalkeeper managed to finish as the goalkeeper with the fewest goals in LaLiga and has achieved his fifth Zamora Trophy, something that only two historic ones like Ramallets or Víctor Valdés have. The next campaign could take a new step in his career and get his sixth Zamora, something that no one has achieved.

He also finished the season with 303 rojiblanco games and equaled Abel Resino as the Atlético goalkeeper with more games played. In the next exercise he will be the goalkeeper with the most crashes played with Atlético. In addition, he won his first League. Before I already had one Europa League, a European Super Cup and a Spanish Super Cup. It is his fourth rojiblanco trophy.

With a contract until 2023, its market value is 70 million euros and is considered by many as the best goalkeeper in the world. Oblak is already on vacation, disconnected from football and with the idea that the season has been very positive.
