La Liga
Sevilla has completely ruled out the signing of Martin Braithwaite in this winter transfer window, a possibility that had been considered after the Danish forward expressed his desire to return to LaLiga from Brazil. Currently at Gremio de Porto Alegre, Braithwaite was seeking an exit that would allow him to come back to Spanish football, but the Sevilla sports management has deemed the operation unfeasible.
Víctor Orta, sports director of Sevilla, did make contact with the 33-year-old player to understand his intentions, but it was clear that the club does not envision his signing. Sevilla's financial constraints limit their maneuvering capacity, complicating other priority deals, such as for Ferran Jutglà, a striker from Bruges.
Braithwaite has performed well, but is expensive for Sevilla
In Brazil, Braithwaite has shown remarkable performance, with eight goals and two assists in 15 matches, increasing his value. Gremio, aware of the player's impact, would not ease his departure and would demand around 7 million euros for the transfer, a sum beyond Sevilla's reach. Moreover, the player's salary, estimated at 1.2 million euros, poses another obstacle for a loan, as reported by the newspaper Sport.
With this decision, Sevilla will continue exploring other alternatives to strengthen their attack in January, but it's evident that Martin Braithwaite will not be one of them. The club prioritizes economically more viable operations with long-term potential.
