True but was making point about average players going for decent amounts.Was a weird sitution though, Barcelona had permission to sign a player from the Spanish league outside the transfer window due to injuries so they couldn't look abroad. And they probably didn't want to spend a fortune (by their standards) on someone they knew would be a temporary stopgap.
There is no other way Braithwaite would ever have ended up at a top club
