PSG 'still hoping for Jan Oblak deal'

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly still in the hunt for Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak, despite the Slovenian expressing a desire to remain at the Wanda Metropolitano.

The 26-year-old, who joined Atletico from Benfica in 2014, has developed into one of the best goalkeepers in European football over the last couple of seasons.

The stopper's form this term has once again been impressive, keeping clean sheets in 14 of his 26 La Liga appearances during the 2018-19 campaign.

Oblak recently revealed that he is keen to sign a new deal with Atletico, but according to Marca, PSG have not given up on their pursuit of the 18-time Slovenia international.

Alphonse Areola and Gianluigi Buffon have shared the gloves at PSG this term, with the former making 22 appearances to the latter's 20.

The French champions were knocked out of the Champions League in the round of 16 on Wednesday night as they suffered a 3-1 home defeat to Manchester United.
