Atletico Madrid has clarified the status of their top goalkeeper ahead of the upcoming match against Barcelona.
Details: The club announced that Jan Oblak, their primary goalkeeper and team captain, will miss the game. The Slovenian, who is still recovering from an injury sustained on March 14, was not included in the squad traveling to Catalonia.
Diego Simeone will feel the impact of Oblak’s absence during this crucial match. Oblak has been pivotal in past encounters with Barcelona, often making spectacular saves.
With Oblak sidelined, Argentine goalkeeper Juan Musso will take over the goalkeeping responsibilities. This match could mark his fifth straight appearance for Los Colchoneros.
Reminder: Barcelona striker Ferran Torres is available for transfer, as Hansi Flick has moved on from relying on him.
