Atlético Madrid star to hit remarkable milestone in Liverpool clash | OneFootball

Atlético Madrid star Jan Oblak is set to cement his place yet further in the club’s history books this week.

As much comes as the goalkeeper prepares to take to the pitch under the bright lights at Anfield.

Atlético are primed to kick their European campaign into gear on Wednesday night.

Something of a daunting trip to England to face reigning Premier League champions Liverpool lies in wait for Diego Simeone’s troops.

Expected to take his place between the posts for the clash, meanwhile, is long-time Rojiblancos no.1 Jan Oblak.

And as revealed by Mundo Deportivo, in the process, the Slovenian will secure fresh history.

As much comes with Wednesday’s outing set to mark his 500th in the famed red and white stripes of Atléti.

It now remains to be seen if Oblak can go on to play his part in what would be a memorable victory on Merseyside.
