Former PSG star Jean-Michel Larque has hit out at Kylian Mbappe over his complaints this week.

With Real Madrid and Liverpool watching on, Mbappe declared he could quit PSG due to criticism coming from the local media.

Larque said: “I don't care about Mbappé's state of mind at the end of the game, what interests me is the game itself. I don't care if it bothers you to be criticised. It doesn't bother him when he's routinely called 'the freak'. How is it that a player who plays abroad is less criticised than one who plays for a French club?

"The criticism comes after two very mediocre games and I don't take into account the game against Kazakhstan, where a penalty is missed.

"And journalists can't say that Mbappé is not doing well at the moment in the French team? That's the truth. Let him do what he wants, but if Mr. Mbappé is not happy when we say that he does not do well for two games, let him change jobs."
