Barcelona is learning that losing players is more difficult than it seems. Martin Braithwaite is following in the footsteps of Frenkie de Jong and Sergino Dest in refusing to quit the club. If Barcelona does not pay Martin Braithwaite the whole money owed for the remaining two years of his contract, he will not leave the team.
The Danish striker, who is also on Barcelona’s undesired list, has agreed to leave, but with one stipulation. Braithwaite, who has two years left on his deal with Barcelona, is requesting that the team pay him the whole balance of his remaining contract before he departs, according to Football Espana.
Barcelona is not thrilled with the player’s demands, but they have not yet been able to locate a buyer. Saudi Arabia has made offers for the player, but nothing has been finalized as of yet. According to Barca Universal, Braithwaite is thinking about relocating abroad in order to increase his chances of making the Danish national squad for the World Cup.
Braithwaite only had 10 appearances for Barcelona last season across all competitions, and if he doesn’t get more game time, he could lose his spot in Qatar 2022.
Barcelona has been extremely active during the transfer period and doesn’t seem to be finished yet. The Blaugrana have signed numerous new players despite their financial difficulties, and they are now considering releasing a few notable figures to make room for their new stars.
