Martin Braithwaite arrived at Barcelona in the middle of 2020 to fill the gap that has been generated after the injuries of Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembele. The Dane’s mission was simple and complex at the same time: to accompany Leone Messi in the culé club striker and try to lift a club that has come from stasis.
By the way, he didn’t make it. The signing of the 31-year-old forward was one of the many mistakes made by a management that ended up resigning eight months later. In the center: Lionel Messi’s remembered burofax.
At the moment, the former Leganés is one of many canceled afterwards Xavi Hernandez will pass the broom in the locker room blaugrana. He will not be considered by the former midfielder and he should find a club, even if he wants to stay and fight it. His numbers in the last season do not support him: four games and two goals.

But the case of the attacker of the national team of Denmark it’s a little bit special. It can be said that he converts all the goals he does not score on the pitch off the pitch. Since, despite his lack of sporting presence, the Dane is a genius in business. It’s more, he is currently one of the Barcelona players with the most money in the bank. How is it possible?
According to a British newspaper publication The sun, the attacker owns a real estate empire in the United States. Your business currently has a value of 250 million dollars. Not bad for someone earning one of the lowest salaries in FC Barcelona.
The athlete knew how to invest his money. This is the key. He used his capital to start a family business real estate which leaves a lot of economic revenue. In 2017 the former Esbjerg, Toulouse, Middlesbrough, Bordeaux and Leganés teamed up with his uncle Philip Michael and invested in eight and a half million dollars.

a genius in business
Property investments in North America have started to show good results over time. What was once just a fledgling business is now a financial emporium. And Braithwaite is the owner.
According to a report from the attacker’s company, New York company, it has grown so much that it is now 25 times bigger than when it started. The company has 1,500 departments. In addition, the Barcelona player and his wife have built 500 buildings near Philadelphia and New Jersey, where the value of homes has grown dramatically.
It should be noted that the entrepreneur also owns a restaurant is one brand of clothes, even if the construction company is what made him a real tycoon. His uncle is the face of the real estate business which has recently started working through crowdfunding as well.
The long-term vision of the Dane is such that he already knows what he can do once he retires from professional sport. Swapping the booties for the dress and a comfortable chair wouldn’t hurt in a few years. Business awaits you in the United States.

He made his debut in 2009 in the top team and after his good performance other clubs from the Old Continent began to watch him.
In 2013 he went to Toulouse from France and in 2017 a Middlesbrough of the EFL championship. He could not settle in the English club and had a short time at the Bordeaux and the LeganiBoth on loan.
In 2019 the Spanish team bought it permanently. The good performance of him in the local league and in his national team has resulted in Barcelona to put 18 million dollars by termination clause.
His performance on the playing field was not the best. The Dane played little or nothing, and he did not enter the hearts of the Catalan fans. At the moment, the Barcelona management is looking for someone to buy his pass for him. If anything is clear it is that, given the lack of goals, there will be millions in Braithwaite.
