While in many countries the play-offs have already been played or are nearly completed, they are still ongoing in Spain.
Espanyol is in fourth place in the Segunda División and is therefore almost certain to participate in the play-offs. This coming Sunday, the club from Barcelona will finish the regular season against mid-table team Cartagena. The team has already secured a spot in the play-offs, which adds a layer of importance to their final match. The play-off final is scheduled for June 23, coinciding with the European Championship already being underway.
Martin Braithwaite, who has been left out of Denmark's squad for the European Championship, is crucial for Espanyol this season. He has scored 21 goals in 38 league matches so far, making him one of the top performers in the team. His contribution has been vital in ensuring Espanyol's strong position in the league. The former Barcelona striker, known for his agility and goal-scoring prowess, has a contract with Espanyol until mid-2025, which secures his presence for the club's immediate future.
Espanyol's fans are hopeful that with Braithwaite's continued form, the team can push through the play-offs and secure promotion to La Liga. The club's management has expressed confidence in their squad, emphasizing the importance of maintaining focus and determination in the final stages of the season. As the play-offs approach, the team is gearing up for what promises to be a challenging yet potentially rewarding conclusion to their campaign.
