"They are not my problem. I don’t have energy to waste on such futile things.”

he told RMC Sport after PSG's win.

"The important thing for me is to give the best of myself for my club, and we will wait for Leo (Messi) to come back to continue scoring and winning games.

"The message was simple - it was to show that, whatever goes on with the national team, PSG is a separate thing and I’m still determined to bring every trophy to the capital."

Mbappe also was asked about rumours that there is a spat between him and his PSG teammate Lionel Messi.

"I spoke with him after the game, I congratulated him. It was the quest of a lifetime for him, for me too, but I failed, so you always have to remain a good player."

he said.

World Cup winner Messi is set to return to PSG training next week.
