Barcelona have rejected massive offers over the past year for three of their best young players.

Ansu Fati, Pedri and Francisco Trincao all attracted huge bids earlier this season - and all were turned down by the Barca board.

Mundo Deportivo says Manchester United were willing to pay €150m for Fati, but that was rejected by former Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu.

Pedri attracted an approach from Bayern Munich, which failed with a €40m proposal.

And just weeks after Trincao's signing was confirmed from Braga, his agent Jorge Mendes delivered Barca the chance to double their money with a €60m offer from unnamed club - but again it was rejected.
