Leeds and West Ham target Martin Braithwaite has made WhoScored‘s Champions League Team of the Week after scoring twice in Barcelona’s 4-0 win over Dynamo Kyiv.
Spanish outlet SPORT recently revealed that the Premier League duo are interested in signing the former Middlesbrough attacker, with Barcelona open to selling him or loaning him out.
However, Braithwaite is reluctant to leave the Camp Nou.
Impressively, his uncertain future isn’t doing anything to harm his form on the pitch.
The Denmark international – who has a €300 million (£268 million) release clause in his contract – earned his place in WhoScored’s Champions League Team of the Week after netting a crucial double.
Sergiño Dest had opened the scoring, although the game was precariously poised until Braithwaite scored two goals in the space of 13 second-half minutes to take the game away from the Ukrainian outfit.
If Leeds and West Ham were watching the 29-year-old’s European exploits, we imagine they’d have been very impressed.
As WhoScored shows, Braithwaite scored with his only two shots on target, and also earned an assist with his only key pass in what was a hugely efficient display.
With January just over a month away, the Dane is doing his chances of a move no harm at all if Barcelona do decide to force him out.
