Jan Oblak has been passed fit to play against Bayern Leverkusen in the Champions League 2nd Round 1st leg at the BayArena on Tuesday after recovering from a shoulder injury.
Oblak ready to return
The Slovenian stopper dislocated his shoulder on 12 December 2016 during the 3-0 away loss to Villarreal, requiring the 24-year old to undergo an operation.
Spanish keeper Miguel Angel Moya has deputised for the absent Oblak in the team’s 16 official matches since then, however the club confirmed on Sunday that their number one is ready to return to action.
