Martin Braithwaite admits Barcelona playing frustrations

Martin Braithwaite has expressed his playing frustrations at Barcelona after a full post-season programme with Denmark.

The striker, who is now on holiday, has been grateful for the confidence shown by coach Kasper Hjulmand.

"I've played more in these four games than in the whole season there [at Barcelona]," Braithwaite told TV 2 SPORT.

"It's been fantastic and I'm very happy with the confidence Kasper has given me.

"I was well aware that I couldn't count on coming in and starting every game, but I knew that in training and in the limited minutes I had, I had to convince Hjulmand that I was fit.

"I feel that I have shown that I am strong, that I am myself and that I have recovered from my injury.

"I am insanely happy, and insanely grateful for the trust they [Denmark's coaching staff] have given me.

"It's been great to be back after not being here since the European Championship.

"I'm proud to be back and to be able to help the team again."
