This Monday the European pass market was closed and Barcelona could not sign Memphis Depay , the forward that coach Ronald Koeman wanted and who seemed destined to replace Luis Suárez. In this way, the Spanish team will face the 2020/21 campaign with an offensive trident that, from the start, will be made up of Lionel Messi, Antoine Griezmann and Ansu Fat i.
Without the arrival of the Dutchman, who will remain at Olympique Lyon , the club published on Tuesday the new numbers of the season and of course, there was someone who had to inherit the number 9 that was left vacant by the Uruguayan striker, who left for Atlético de Madrid after the Dutch technician anticipated that he was not going to be part of the new project.
Who will wear the 9 on his back will be none other than Martin Braithwaite , of whom it was said that in the middle of the conflict between Lionel and the leadership had already asked to keep the 10 of the Argentine if he finally left the club.
The 29-year-old Dane arrived at Barcelona at the beginning of the year, which paid Leganés the € 18 million exit clause after an injury to Luis Suárez . In addition, he signed a contract until 2024 and set him an exit clause of 300 million euros. Since his arrival, he has played only 403 minutes in which he scored a single goal against Mallorca. In addition, since Koeman’s arrival, he has held a place among the substitutes in two of the three games, but has not yet stepped onto the pitch.
Luis Suárez left Barcelona being the club’s third highest scorer in history with 198 goals in 283 games in six years. The Uruguayan, who joined the team in July 2014 became the Pichichi (scorer) of the 2015/16 league and obtained the Golden Boot of Europe with 59 goals in 53 presentations (40 of them in the local tournament). In addition, it won four leagues, four Copas del Rey, two Spanish Super Cups, a Champions League, a European Super Cup and a Club World Cup.
