Jan Oblak Requires Shoulder Surgery

Atletico Madrid have confirmed that goalkeeper Jan Oblak will require surgery on a shoulder injury sustained in Monday's 3-0 defeat by Villarreal. Atletico have won only one of their last five league games, which has seen them slip 12 points behind leaders Real Madrid. This news is a real disaster for Diego Simeone. The man tasked with stepping in is Miguel Angel Moya, who returned from his own injury last month after missing three months due to knee surgery. Moya was the first choice a couple of years ago, but a different injury ruled him out and gave young Jan Oblak his big chance in goal. Now it's time for Moya to step in.
