Martin Braithwaite joins Leganes on loan from Middlesbrough LaLiga Santander Had been on the wish list since the summer

Leganes have already made some moves in the January transfer window and their latest piece of business has seen them acquire Martin Braithwaite on loan from Middlesbrough until June 30.

Leganes have been tracking the 27-year-old Dane since the summer, but could not match the economic demands in the previous window.

His situation has now changed, though, as he hasn't been playing as much and Leganes snapped him up when a loan became possible.

The right-footed player, who can perform as a winger or a forward, is quick and has experience at club and international level.

He has been capped 29 times so far for his country and he played at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

He began his career at his hometown club Esbjerg FB, where he made his debut in the Danish top flight at the age of 18.
