Martin Braithwaite experienced an embarrassing moment a few minutes before the start of the match between Barcelona and Pumas UNAM for him Joan Gamper Trophy. At the Spotify Camp Nou, at the precise moment in which the players of the 2022-23 squad were presented, the Danish striker took a monumental hit. Thousands of fans whistled at him from the stands and erased the smile with which he had jumped onto the Les Corts pitch.
The furious reaction of the four stands of the stadium is due to the refusal of the Denmark international to leave in the current transfer market. The former Leganés is aware that the high command does not want to know more about him, but he aims to fulfill his entire contract until mid-2024.
At the start of the transfer market, Braithwaite’s intention was to leave Barça in this window of passes only if the club, or at the hands of its representative, received offers from important teams in LaLiga Santander or the Premier League. He did not see himself playing outside of Spain or England.
However, the Danish striker and his representative have seen that seductive proposals did not appear at this stage of the market. It is for this reason that Braithwaite has had no choice but to take advantage of an offer from Saudi Arabian football, after a termination with Barcelona.
“Barça will save little money, since the player’s file is one of the lowest in the squad, but they will release a number. What is clear is that his departure at zero cost will generate losses because Barça invested 18 million euros when they signed him from Leganés”. reports the newspaper Sport de Catalunya.
It should be remembered that Martin Braithwaite He arrived at Barcelona in February 2020 from Leganés for 18 million euros to replace a Luis Suárez who was injured at that time. The value of the Dane is calculated at 6 ‘kilos’.
