Antoine Griezmann marked his 500th appearance for Atletico Madrid by providing his 100th assist for the club in a 1-0 victory over Girona on May 17, 2026. The 35-year-old French forward set up Ademola Lookman in the 21st minute for the decisive goal in what was Atletico's penultimate La Liga match of the season.
According to verified reports, this was Griezmann's final home game at the Metropolitano before a reported transfer to Major League Soccer (MLS) club Los Angeles FC. The move is expected to be completed in the summer transfer window, ending his second stint with the Spanish club.
Goalkeeper Jan Oblak led tributes after the match, praising Griezmann's contribution to the club. 'He should have won a Ballon d'Or!' Oblak said, reflecting on Griezmann's career achievements. Griezmann has scored 190 goals for Atletico across all competitions since rejoining the club in 2023.
The win kept Atletico in contention for a top-three finish in La Liga, with one match remaining in the season. Griezmann's 100 assists place him among the top assist providers in the club's history.
