Barcelona will count on midfield pair Carles Aleña and Riqui Puig next season.

Sport says the decision has been taken. Only the arrival of a huge offer for one of them will change the club's mind.

Barça feel both young midfielders are ready to contribute much more than they have done so far and will look to move on older players and replace them with youth. Aleña and Puig will be in Quique Setien's squad and will have a shirt number. It is now up to them to fight for their place.

Aleña, 22, started the current season in the first team but joined Real Betis on loan in January. His decision was made before Setien replaced Ernesto Valverde.

Puig, 20, is still playing for Barça B but in his second season of training almost daily with the first team.
