#3 Ansu Fati - €60 million
Ansu Fati is one of the brightest graduates to have emerged out of Barcelona's famed La Masia academy in recent years.
Still only 18, Fati made a blistering start to his Barcelona career, drawing parallels with a certain Lionel Messi. However, an injury setback cut short his promising start, sidelining him for large swathes of last season.
Back after a long layoff this season, Fati has scored once in three games across competitions. However, he will be expected to up the ante and help Barcelona overcome a torrid start to their campaign.
#2 Pedri - €80 million
Pedri is arguably one of the best young players in the game at the moment. Still only 18, the teenager has produced performances for club and country that have belied his tender years.
Another exciting La Masia graduate like Fati, Pedri has already racked up over 50 games across competitions for Barcelona after debuting only last season. He is not a prolific scorer, evident in his tally of four goals and six assists.
But the Euro 2020 semi-finalist is a metronome in the center of the park, dictating the tempo of games with elan.
After a busy summer with Spain - a semi-final at Euro 2020 and the Olympic men's football final - Pedri has played only four times this season. However, it goes without saying that he'll have a key role to play this campaign as Barcelona attempt to sail out of treacherous waters.
#1 Frenkie de Jong - €90 million
Frenkie de Jong is beginning to come into his own at Barcelona after arriving at the club on a big transfer two summers ago.
The young Dutchman was one of the key players in Ajax's fairy-tale run to the Champions League semi-finals in 2018-19. With the Blaugrana, De Jong recently made his 100th appearance across competitions, scoring nine times.
De Jong has provided two assists in eight games across all competitions this season. He will look to play a key role under compatriot Koeman as Barcelona strive to write a new chapter in the post-Lionel Messi era.
