In an interview with the club's TV channel, Bartomeu said he hoped both players would turn down any offers with a move following reports of Manchester United's interest in Pedro.
"Pedro only recently renewed. Sometimes he doesn't play much, that's true, but he's a part of the history of this club. He was part of the first treble, and now the second," he said. "Adriano brings us a lot."
He also expressed his confidence that Barcelona could defend their Champions League title, saying: "We know it's difficult but we'll try to win everything. We've a great team to win the six titles. Hopefully we can repeat the Champions League win, which nobody has ever done. We have a team capable of doing it."
