LaLiga begins in eight days and Jan Oblak will face a major challenge in it: to be the first goalkeeper to achieve six Zamoras. Add five, matched with Ramallets and Valdés, four achieved consecutively, and the fifth was last season in which Atlético was proclaimed champion. In between, Courtois (2019-20). A Jan who already refines his gloves. He is one of the Cholo footballers who have been throughout the Atlético preseason, from the beginning, of those who have played in Burgo de Osma, Soria, in Salzburg, Woflsburg and in Cádiz. And it goes to more. Recovering sensations and paradons, although with a fate: he has fitted in all the friendlies.
A few goals, four, to one for the 90 'of each game, and without fortune in the round that decided the Carranza Trophy, since he did not stop any. However, he had two big stops. In minute 79, against Perea, and another in minute 63 'of his, of San Jan, the one who always saves Atlético with his gloves. Six minutes from the end he was already unable to contain Perea's yellow waste, which came in like an exhalation after the break and gave Cádiz all the intimidation it had lacked before.
Double challenge of the Slovenian
In the last normal preseason, the one before the pandemic, COVID, that of 2020-21, Atlético played six preseason games and Oblak was also there from the beginning. The Slovenian goalkeeper conceded that summer five goals conceded in three games while keeping a clean sheet in three games.
