Two of Barcelona's attackers are reportedly refusing to leave the Camp Nou, despite the club being open to their potential sales.

According to Sport, both Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres do not want to leave the club this off-season.
The Blaugrana are believed to have informed both that they are to be sold if suitable offers arrive, but the players have reiterated their desire to stay at the Camp Nou.
The duo's sale is said to be required in order to facilitate more incomings, with manager Xavi Hernandez believing he has other holes to plug in the squad, namely at right-back and in central midfield.
Lamine Yamal and Abde Ezzalzouli's displays in pre-season have also reportedly assured the 43-year-old that they can fill the gaps left by Ousmane Dembele and, temporarily due to suspension, Raphinha, with the young pair being the first two players who came on for the Barca manager during their 0-0 draw with Getafe in the opening matchday of LALIGA this past weekend.

Fati came on later in the game as Xavi seemingly illustrated who his preferred attacking options are likely to be this season.
The 20-year-old was offered to Wolverhampton Wanderers at the beginning of the window, but he refused to consider the switch, with the Blaugrana now reportedly considering sending him out on loan instead in the hopes of recouping some funds while also opening the opportunity for Fati to potentially return to the team at a later date.
