Dembele has chosen to maintain a low profile and stay out of the public eye.

However, Barcelona looks set to get their pound of flesh from the forward, with reports from Barcelona Universal suggesting he might be forced to make an appearance in this evening's Joan Gamper Trophy match against Tottenham Hotspur.
