Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone described Fernando Torres as an "icon" after he scored his 100th La Liga goal in the routine 3-0 win over Levante on Sunday.
The 34-year-old confirmed earlier this week that he will depart the club, where he made his name as a young striker, when his contract expires at the end of the season.
Torres, who returned to Atletico in 2015 on an initial loan deal, has been waiting for his landmark La Liga goal since hitting the net against Las Palmas in January.
He finally brought up three figures with a superb volley to complete the scoring in the comfortable win, leaving Simeone to heap praise on the former Spain striker.
