Barça striker Braithwaite clarifies rumours about his status as one of the world's wealthiest athletes

Martin Braithwaite is not on the Forbes Rich List of the world's wealthiest people. In a statement released on his social media platforms, Braithwaite said: "I see Forbes wants to put me on a list. You guys are a couple of years too soon! That said, if you're interested in the details, we'll be diving into that side of my life in my @433 documentary".

Over the last couple of days, rumours emerged online that suggested that the Danish forward now featured in the list of the world's wealthiest people thanks to the success of his real estate businesses in the USA. However, according to the footballer himself, he is still a long way off attaining this level of wealth.

His rebuttal came a few hours after being knocked out of the European Championships by England. The Barça striker had a good tournament, reaching the semi-finals with the Danish national team. They were finally knocked out by Gareth Southgate's Three Lions, but were nonetheless one of the sensations of Euro 2020, with Braithwaite playing a key role in the Danish front line.
