Barcelona president Joan Laporta has revealed that the club have received recent offers for Pedri, Ansu Fati, Andreas Christensen, Frenkie de Jong and Ronald Araujo.
The Catalan outfit have secured the signature of Ilkay Gundogan this summer on a free transfer from Manchester City, and they are expected to continue to be active in the coming weeks in a bid to improve their squad for the 2023-24 campaign.
The nature of the club's financial situation means that there will have to be outgoings, though, with a number of first-team players currently being linked with exits.
Ferran Torres is said to be wanted by Aston Villa, although the Spaniard has revealed that he is determined to remain at Camp Nou beyond the end of this summer's transfer window.
Laporta has claimed that offers have been received for Pedri, Fati, Christensen, De Jong and Araujo, but the club are not prepared to sell the five players in question.

"Last year it happened and we were worse. We had an offer of €100m (£86m) for De Jong and we were right not to accept it," he told TV3.
"We've received offers for Pedri, Ansu Fati, Christensen, de Jong and Araujo but we think they have to continue. They are the present and the future of the club."
De Jong's future is again being called into question, with Manchester United still thought to be keeping an eye on his situation at Barcelona.
The Red Devils pushed for the Dutchman's signature during last summer's transfer window but were ultimately unsuccessful, with the midfielder insisting on multiple occasions that he wanted to stay at Camp Nou.

Fati's future has also been the subject of much speculation, with the Spain international believed to be frustrated with his lack of starts during the recent season.
However, Laporta claimed that the attacker is part of "the present and the future of the club", seemingly ruling out a transfer for the 20-year-old, who made 51 appearances in all competitions last season.
Pedri struggled with injury problems in 2022-23, being restricted to 35 appearances, but the 20-year-old is a key player for the club, while Christensen impressed in his first season at Camp Nou following a move from Chelsea, making 32 appearances in all competitions.
Araujo had been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League last year, but the 24-year-old signed a new deal until June 2026 and is also viewed as an untouchable player at Camp Nou.
Laporta also revealed during the same interview that the club are in discussions over a deal for Fenerbahce teenager Arda Guler.
