Braithwaite is well behind Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann in the attacking pecking order. It is now suggested that Barcelona could dive into the market to bolster their ranks.

However, the Denmark international has vowed to remain at Camp Nou and fight for a spot in Ronald Koeman’s team.

Speaking to Spanish news outlet TV3, Braithwaite said:

Barcelona could sell Braithwaite to fund new signings

It is rumored that Barcelona are open to selling Braithwaite to free up funds for new arrivals, but the 29-year-old has revealed he has no plans to quit the Camp Nou this winter.

However, the Denmark international claims he would welcome competition, despite being a back-up option for the Spanish giants.

Braithwaite was a shock transfer for Barcelona after completing a £15 million move from Leganes in February 2020. He joined after Ousmane Dembele was ruled out for over five months.

Since his move, the Dane has registered 30 appearances for the Blaugrana, scoring six goals and creating one assist for his teammates.
