Valencia rekindle interest in FC Barcelona's Martin Braithwaite

The striker, who has been ignored in Barça's plan, prioritizes staying in Spain, but still shows no signs of agreeing to an exit

Martin Braithwaite remains steadfast in his intention not to leave FC Barcelona despite being ruled out by coach Xavi Hernandez and left out of the U.S. tour. The striker is in a very difficult position that could see his contract coming to termination despite the fact that he has offers from other clubs.

Valencia has again reached out for his signing, requesting the release or a loan with good terms, and Celta too has him on their agenda, but the Dane for now does not wish to negotiate. Braithwaite wanted to show Xavi that he could have his chances at Barça, but the club have completely closed the doors to his continuation. The first reaction of the striker and his entourage is to wait and keep their options close to them, as the player will only be available to look for a way out with the letter of freedom from his club, despite the fact that Barça could find him a low-cost transfer in the Premier League.

The Dane, however, is not willing to return to England and is more open to Spanish options. Valencia, although they will have serious difficulties in signing him, has kept him as one of their targets. They already asked for his loan last season, and also at the beginning of the summer and would ponder keeping him if he rescinds his stance, or with the help of the letter of freedom. Celta on the other hand prioritizes the arrival of Borja Mayoral but Madrid is asking for a lot of money, and they see Braithwaite as an affordable option if the striker decides to leave. The Galician club is already negotiating with Barça to keep goalkeeper Neto.
