REVEALED: Star Barcelona trio were against Alcacer signing

Barcelona's locker room weren't enthusiastic over the arrival of Paco Alcacer this summer.

The striker signed for Barca in August from Valencia and is yet to score for the Blaugrana this season.

And it's been revealed Barca's senior trio Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar felt changes didn't need to be made.

Indeed, the trio made it clear to coaching staff that youngsters Sandro and Munir El Haddadi were good enough as cover for the fourth striker.

Sandro is currently with Malaga this term, while Munir is playing for Valencia.
