Newcastle United winger Allan Saint-Maximin admits he doesn't enjoy a good reputation in France.

The former Nice star is regarded as flash in his home nation - something he acknowledges.

He told The Times: "Sometimes in France, they think I'm not humble. It's really bad in France. They do not know who I am.

"They say to themselves, 'oh, you have this life and I can not'. They say I'm different, but that's not right.

"I like being fashionable. But some think that you are superior to others and I hate that. You can have 25m in your bank account, you will die anyway."
