While Oblak is happy to stay, he acknowledged that the sporting management at Atletico Madrid will have the final say on the squad’s direction. The goalkeeper featured in 43 matches across all competitions during the 2025-26 season, conceding 55 goals and keeping 11 clean sheets. Oblak was clear that the hierarchy must evaluate the team’s needs as they look to transition into a new era under Simeone or a potential successor.
The Slovenian international noted: “They also have to consider everything. At some point, they must make decisions about the future.”
He also reaffirmed his desire to add more silverware to his cabinet, stating he wants to “achieve some things with this club that I haven’t achieved yet,” despite the recent dip in the team’s collective defensive form.
