Since the state of emergency was declared, the injured Ousmane Dembele has not shown any signs of activity on social media apart from sharing Leo Messi's statement on Instagram regarding the players taking a pay cut.

The lockdown has seen Ousmane Dembele go into 'hiding'. Since he was operated on his latest long term injury, his name was only mentioned because he has been linked with several clubs, but we do not know anything of him in the last month.

Since the state of ermergency was declared, he has locked himself away in his home and not given any signs of life. On social media, the only activity is of him liking Leo Messi's statement on the controversy over the players' wages being cut. But no posts, no indication as to how he is keeping in these unprecedented times.

He has not even participated in some of the multiple challenges launched by the footballers and he has not shown any sign of him enjoying himself at home. The Barca winger seems focussed only on his recovery, which is so far going well. 

The fact he is at home does not inspire much confidence in the club's leaders because his problems with regards to sleeping at unsociable hours or eating unhealthy things for a footballer are well known. Because of these things, he has had more than one run-in with the club
