Martin Braithwaite spoke to Barça's official media in the preview of the match against Leganés, the club from which he came and to which Barça paid 18 million euros to sign him. In recent days, the Danish came to admit that he carried the signing with such secrecy that his wife thought he had a lover. Ironies aside, Braithwaite is highly motivated to take on his former teammates. These were his impressions in the Barça media.
His goal in Mallorca: “Score my first goal with Barça was incredible, it is something I had dreamed of and had worked hard for it, I am very happy.”
Play again: “Playing again was a special feeling. Without fans it is very different but I felt good.”
The Leganes: “I know them, I know how they play. We want to win the League so we must win to keep adding.”
His best friend in Leganés: “I have spoken with Kevin Rodrigues, he is a great friend of mine. I really want to play against them on Tuesday”.
His matches against Barça: “I remember great moments with Leganés, but I keep when we won against Sevilla in their field in a great match. The first match was difficult for Barça, we went ahead and defended well but it was not enough to achieve victory. the second match was much better, they did much better than us. “
Aguirre: “Aguirre is a great coach, I have a lot of respect for him. He came and knew how he wanted to play, what he wanted to do and gave confidence to the players. But the most important thing for me is the human aspect, he understands that footballers are people ahead of players. “
Change of objectives: “It is different, you play with pressure to win the League. I prefer to play to win a title rather than to achieve salvation.”
