Jan Oblak extended his legacy as a Red & White player

Jan Oblak extended his legend as a Red & White player. In Sunday's match against Rayo Vallecano at the Estadio Vallecas, the Slovenian international surpassed Diego Godín with 390 games played as an Atletico Madrid player, becoming the foreigner with the most appearances for the club and the tenth Atletico Madrid player with the most, leaving behind players such as Diego Godín (389), Ángel Correa (364), Filipe Luis (333), Antoine Griezmann (331) and Perea (314).

The Škofja Loka native joined the club on 16 July 2014 at the age of 21. On 16 September of the same season, he made his debut for Atlético in a Champions League match against Olympiacos.

As an Atlético player he has won four tittles: one LaLiga tittle (2020-21), one Europa League (2018), one European Super Cup (2018) and one Spanish Super Cup (2014). In addition to these titles, he also won numerous individual mentions that earned him the distinctiona of being one of the best goalkeepers in the world: he was part of the 2015-16 and 2016-17 UEFA Champions League teams; the 2017-18 UEFA Europa League; five Zamora trophies (2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2020-21) and was named MVP of the season in LaLiga in the 2020-21 campaign.
