Former Barca ace Jose Mari Bakero was the man sent by the Catalan giants to run the rule over the four youngsters as Ajax saw off FC Zwolle in the Dutch top flight 1-0, and will have been left impressed by their fitness levels at the very least as all four completed the full 90 minutes.

Kluivert has become one of the hottest properties in his homeland due to both his family connections and his superb talents.

The 18-year-old forward, who recently stated that he wouldn’t have any issues playing in the Premier League has featured in all but five of Ajax’s matches this term, and has weighed in with seven goals and four assists for the second-placed side.

Capable of playing on the left or right wing, the Dutch Under-21 international has been earmarked as a potential Manchester United and Chelsea target but Barca will have something to say about that.

De Ligt, meanwhile, has long been a target of La Blaugrana and they have remained interested in him for a number of seasons.

The centre-back has made 52 appearances in all competitions for Ajax over the past 18 months and has been touted as a future Netherlands international captain due to his physical and technical qualities.

Van de Beek and de Jong have both made centre midfield berths their own over the past two seasons, with the 20-year-old pair racking up some impressive stats for their club.

Indeed, van de Beek’s haul of 11 goals this season has gone some way to filling the void left by Davy Klaassen while de Jong is an assist machine with nine goals laid on for his teammates.
