Atletico Madrid keeper Miguel San Roman: Oblak best in world

Atletico Madrid youngster Miguel San Roman admits he looks up to No1 Jan Oblak.

The Slovenian won the Zamora Award for a fourth consecutive year in LaLiga Santander this season, and the promising goalkeeper San Roman is loving every minute of working with him.

"Oblak is the best in the world," the 21-year-old said.

"It's an honour to train with him and I try to learn as much as I can.

"He has changed the way goalkeepers stop shots with his peculiar style.

"He tries to reduce spaces for the striker and teaches us that closer to the goalline you have a better chance of seeing the ball, it's very useful."
