Barcelona president, Josep Bartomeu, has named the players
that will not be sold this summer, as the club looks to rebuild its squad.
In a lengthy interview with Barcelona TV, the under-pressure
Bartomeu listed squad members like Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembele, Marc Andre
Ter Stegen and Antoine Griezmann.
The LaLiga giants are ready to offload a number of senior
players, following a dismal season that culminated in a 8-2 thrashing against
Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
Bartomeu, who has refused to resign from his position, said:
“Messi is untouchable and non-transferable. He knows it, we all know it.
“But there are various non-transferable players like (Marc
Andre) Ter Stegen, (Clement) Lenglet, (Nelson) Semedo, (Frenkie) De Jong,
(Antoine) Griezmann, (Ousmane) Dembele. Players we are counting on in the
future.”
He also named Ansu Fati, 17, as another who will be part of
the future at Barca.
“We have had (offers) for Ansu Fati, for example. But Barca
does not want to sell players, although we receive several offers for players.
“We don’t want to sell him. He has a great future. I’m
telling you from here, he’s non-transferable,” Bartomeu added.
