🥅 Simeone hints at Oblak return, says he trained well today | OneFootball

The coach of Atlético de Madrid, Diego Pablo Simeone, has raised alarms among the red-and-white fans by hinting at the possible return of Jan Oblak to the starting lineup.

The iconic Slovenian goalkeeper, who had been sidelined due to a muscle injury, might be ready to reappear in the next league match.

Simeone was directly asked in a press conference about Oblak's physical condition, as he had withdrawn with discomfort during the last international break with Slovenia. His response, though cautious, was very revealing regarding the goalkeeper's progress.

"He trained quite well today. We will see tomorrow morning with the training whether to decide if he starts or doesn't play," stated the Argentine coach.

Oblak's muscle injury has kept the coaching staff and fans on edge, but his progress has been remarkable. His return would bring stability and leadership at a crucial moment in the season, reaffirming the competitiveness of the Atlético team.
