Manchester United and Chelsea are set to suffer a hammer blow in their chase for Barcelona star, Sergio Busquets, with Barca offering their midfielder a new contract to help ward off any interest.

According to reports, the Premier League duo have been contemplating an audacious £35 million swoop for the Nou Camp midfield enforcer. However sources in Spain have subsequently revealed Barcelona will improve on Busquets' £65,000 per-week wages to secure his long-term future.

The 26-year-old only signed a three-year contract extension with the Catalan giants in August 2013, but their ongoing transfer embargo has made the retention of players a top priority.
Busquets ability to protect the back-four in a team full of attack-minded player's has proved an invaluable service for both Barcelona and the Spanish national team.
His long list of honours includes a World Cup, European Championship, four La Liga titles, two Champions League winners medal's and two Copa del Rey trophies.
Busquets has played in all but one of Barca's La Liga games this season, proving he continues to occupy a prominent role at the Nou Camp.
