At 21 years old and 19 years old the Dutch pair are considered to be some of the best in their respective positions for the future.

Both De Jong and De Ligt have impressed for the Netherlands despite being in the UEFA Nations League group of death alongside France and Germany.

Both men are beginning to establish themselves at senior level for the Dutch National team and Barcelona should bite the bullet before the price-tag rises for the talented duo.

Could the chance to play alongside some of the greats at the Camp Nou be too good an opportunity to turn down for Firmino?
