Antoine Griezmann scored a brilliant long-range effort as Atletico Madrid shared the spoils with Athletic Bilbao

Antoine Griezmann scored a brilliant goal for Atletico Madrid on Sunday, but it was not enough to earn them victory at Athletic Bilbao.

It was revealed in the week that Manchester United are interested in signing Griezmann, should he become available in the summer.

And the France international underlined his quality with a superb strike against Athletic Bilbao, picking up the ball from Fernando Torres and then firing into the bottom corner from distance.

The goal pulled Atletico level at 2-2, but they could not grab a late winner at San Mames.

Atletico head coach Diego Simeone was asked about Griezmann's future on Wednesday, and said he doesn't "tie anyone down".

"I simply keep working to continue getting better for the sake of the club," he said, as quoted by AS.

"He is in an extraordinary moment, is working well, has gotten back on the scoresheet and his form is good. It is normal that the best teams in the world want him. I am not surprised that the teams who are looking are the ones who can afford him."
