Watch Martin Braithwaite play and you’ll notice a few things about him. He’s very very fast. He’s got a lot of energy. He’s strong. He’s tall. In many ways, the first things you notice are physical traits. But there’s one thing the new FC Barcelona forward credits more than anything for his success - his mind.
“My main characteristic is that I like to study the play,” Braithwaite told ESPN.
Most people were shocked by Braithwaite’s move from relegation scrappers Leganés to Barcelona, who are now top of the table after they defeated Eibar 5-0 in the Dane’s debut.
