Huge Blow For Atletico Madrid As as Oblak Faces Four Months Out After Shoulder Surgery

Published on:

Atletico Madrid confirmed on Tuesday that they will be without Slovenian international goalkeeper, Jan Oblak for between three to four months after he dislocated his left shoulder during their 3-0 defeat in Villarreal on Monday.

Original estimations were that the goalkeeper would only be out of action for between a fortnight and a month.

Atletico will count of Miguel Angel Moya as Oblak’s replacement, although Moya himself has just returned to action after a long spell on the sidelines after undergoing a knee operation.
