The former Barça striker, now in the squad of Espanyol, praised the French forward after his display against Viktoria Pilsen.
Martin Braithwaite, former Barça striker and now the player of Espanyol, gave an interview to the program ‘Tot Costa’ on Catalunya Ràdio, where he spoke about his happy start with Espanyol, but also about Barça and especially, Ousmane Dembélé, whom he praised highly. “He makes more of a difference than Lewandowski,” the Dane said of Dembélé. “Ousmane is a very good guy, I like him a lot, he has a huge talent, I’ve never seen anyone like that. Messi is something else, but I’ve never seen anyone like Ousmane,” he reasoned.
Braithwaite did not want to let Lewandowski down in his comparison with Dembélé and later added that “he scores a lot of goals, I’m happy for him, he’s a great professional. I wish him all the luck to have a very good season, but now I’m here to win at Espanyol,” he commented.
About his departure from Barça, he did not want to dig into the wound, although he said that “people do not know everything, they read the press and it is not true what was said. It’s the past and now I’m happy. Braithwaite preferred to emphasize that “I have many positive things from Barcelona in my head, now I’m here, where I want to be”. In this sense, the Danish international pointed out that Espanyol’s offer “came at the perfect time” and that staying in Barcelona was a decisive factor: “My family likes it a lot and it is important to continue living here”.
