Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak affirms that he is happy at the club, but he may be open to a departure if the La Liga champions needed to raise funds.

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak has refused to rule out a future move away from the Wanda Metropolitano, but he has insisted that he is happy in the Spanish capital.

The Slovenia international is approaching his seven-year anniversary as an Atletico player following his 2014 arrival from Benfica, and he won his first La Liga title with the club during the 2020-21 season.

Despite his status as Diego Simeone's undisputed number one, Oblak has been linked with moves to Chelsea and Manchester United, and he has hinted that he would be willing to leave if it was in everyone's best interests.

Speaking to Marca, Oblak said: "I can't see the future, neither myself nor the club nor anyone can. It will depend on a lot of factors, such as if the club needs to sell any players or not.

"I have nothing to say about my future, I have been at Atleti seven years and I have two years left on my contract.

"I have played more than 300 games here and, while I enjoy having won La Liga Santander, I'm not thinking about anything else. I'm here, I'm happy. We'll see what the future brings."

Oblak played every minute of Atletico's triumphant 2020-21 La Liga campaign, keeping 18 clean sheets in 38 matches and conceding just 25 goals.
