Martin Christensen Braithwaite
Martin Braithwaite attacks space, runs beyond the line, and pins centre-backs with angled touches as a roaming forward. Martin Braithwaite started at Esbjerg fB, winning the Danish Cup in 2012–13. He then moved to Toulouse to grow. There he scored in two back-to-back seasons and built a flexible forward profile. In 2020 a Barcelona transfer shifted him into deeper pockets to link play. Braithwaite joined Grêmio in 2024, debuting with a brace. He has surpassed 60 Denmark caps. On the pitch, Braithwaite presses high and finishes moves with quick strikes.
