Xavi Hernández took the reins of the FC Barcelona with several doubts on some of his players. However, the happen of the months have left clear which are the pieces that explain for the egarense and those who have happened to lodge permanently in the bench. And if they still existed doubts, the crossing of Europe League in front of the Eintracht Frankfurt finished them to clear.

For the international commitment, was clear that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would be the indisputable headline in the front of attack. Nevertheless, they happened the minutes and the Germans remained with one less in the field, what left in 'tray' the opportunity that Xavi looked for to break the equality in the marker with another forward. It was the perfect moment so that Martin Braithwaite went out of the ostracism and luciera the elastic Barcelona in the lawn of the Deutsche Bank Park. At all more move# away of the reality.

Although Memphis Depay remained out of the announcement by injury, and that Luuk of Jong neither could do act of presence by COVID, the one of Terrassa did not think in any instant give him minutes to the Danish. Instead, it preferred to use to Aubameyang during all the meeting, in spite of that it was one of his more discreet nights of the season.

Since Braithwaite went back of his injury on 20 January in front of the Athletic Bilbao in Glass of Rey, the ariete Nordic only accumulates 24' minutes in what it goes of year. Xavi has been asked after the in some occasions, but always alleges that the international with Denmark is one more in the team and that always is taken in account in the rotation. Again, the speech does not go chord to what appreciates in each party.

In the ramp of exit

With a valid agreement until 2023, the Scandinavian will have to think twice his future in the Barça. On the one hand, hardly another team can offer him a similar wage to the that has in the Camp Nou. By another, his low activity could leave him out of the announcement of Kasper Hjulmand for the World-wide of Catar 2022. It is thus that the club could open him the doors of exit to do box by his traspaso, as long as the player like this wish it.
