Official: "Benfica" goalkeeper J.Oblak will strengthen the "Atletico" club

Madrid's "Atletico" did not look for Thibaut Courtois' replacement for a long time. It is announced on the official club website that an agreement has been reached with Lisbon's "Benfica" for Jan Oblak's transfer to the Spanish capital team.

This summer, "Rojiblancos" already acquired a new goalkeeper - Miguel Angel Moya, but it is believed that he will be 21-year-old J. Oblak's understudy.

"Atletico" informs that upon arriving in Madrid, J. Oblak will sign a six-year contract. Unofficial data suggests that the goalkeeper cost 5 million euros for the "Primera" champions.

Last season, the Slovenian national team goalkeeper played 26 matches in the ranks of "Benfica" and triumphed in the Portuguese league and cup with the team.
