It looks like Barca have finally made a breakthrough in their efforts to offload Martin Braithwaite. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Danish striker is undergoing medical tests with La Liga outfit Espanyol. He will then terminate his contract with the Blaugrana by mutual consent.

Braithwaite is set to sign a three-year deal with Espanyol. The 31-year-old was deemed surplus to requirements at the club but refused to leave the club in the January transfer window. He remained keen to kick on at Barca even during the summer.

However, Braithwaite recognized the need to get regular game time with the 2022 FIFA World Cup fast approaching. Thus he has decided to move on.
