As reported by Football Espana, Braithwaite has two years left on his contract with Barcelona and is insisting that the club pay out the full amount of his remaining contract before he leaves.

Barcelona are unhappy with the player’s demands but are unable to find a buy yet for him. Offers have come in from Saudi Arabia for the player, but no deal has yet been agreed upon.

Barca Universal reports that Braithwaite is considering moving abroad as he seeks to secure a place in the Danish national team for the World Cup.

Braithwaite only made 10 appearances for Barcelona in all competitions last season ad risks losing his place at Qatar 2022 if he fails to get more game time.

5 players that could leave Barcelona this summer and 5 footballers the Blaugrana are currently linked with

Barcelona have been very busy in the transfer window and doesn’t appear to be done as yet.

Despite being in debt, the Blaugrana have brought in many new faces and are now looking at releasing a few big names to register their new stars.

Sports Brief has put together a list of 5 players who find themselves on the outs and 5 players that the Spanish giants are still interested in.

Messi, Neymar, Etoo top list as 9 players who snubbed Real Madrid for Barcelona is revealed

Barcelona and Real Madrid had gone head-to-head for the services of some world-class players in the past, and the Catalan giants have had some success over their arch-rivals.

The likes of Cesc Fabregas, Neymar, and Luis Suarez had been courted by Real Madrid at some point in their careers, but they decided to pick a move to the Camp Nou instead.

According to Planet Football, Real Madrid also attempted recruiting Barcelona legends Lionel Messi and Samuel Etoo, although the Cameroonian forward started his career in Spain in the Real Madrid academy.
