Ajax are determined to keep Kasper Dolberg and Amin Younes and are not prepared to sell Davinson Sanchez for less than €40million, director of football Marc Overmars has said.

Centre-back Sanchez has been linked with a move to Barcelona after impressing in Ajax's run to the Europa League final last season.

Dolberg to reject 'every big club'

Younes, meanwhile, is reportedly a target for a number of Bundesliga clubs, while striker Dolberg has been tipped for a move to the Premier League or Serie A after scoring 23 times in all competitions last term.

Overmars, however, has no intention of allowing Sanchez to leave on the cheap and has ruled out the prospect of selling the attacking duo, who he hopes will learn from experienced forward Klaas-Jan Huntelaar in 2017-18.

"Kasper Dolberg and Amin Younes are not for sale," he told De Telegraaf.

Why Barca want Ajax star Sanchez

"Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Dolberg are a top tandem of master and student."

On Sanchez, who has also been linked with Real Madrid and Inter, Overmars added: "For less than €40m, he's not going anywhere."
