3. Jan Oblak

Considered by many to be the best keeper in La Liga, Oblak has been the main man between the sticks for Atletico Madrid for the past four seasons. During that time, Atletico have become renowned for having one of the strongest defences in world football, which Oblak is at the heart of.

As with most players on this list, Oblak has fantastic reflexes and is an elite shot-stopper. His phenomenal clean sheet record speaks for itself. That said, perhaps his strongest attribute is his improved passing ability.

He is more than capable of playing as a sweeper keeper and helping his side out of trouble. Having also established himself as the Slovenian national keeper, a bright international career beckons. Also just 26 at the moment, Oblak should hang around for a fair while yet.
