Kylian Mbappe has been criticised by fans for having a "loser mentality" amid reports he is set to remain with Paris Saint-Germain.
Mbappe, 23, is out of contract at the end of the season and could leave the Parc des Princes on a free transfer, with Spanish champions Real Madrid heavily linked with the France international.
However, French newspaper Le Parisien reported on Thursday that Mbappe has agreed in principle to sign a new two-year contract extension with PSG.
He will reportedly earn £42.5m (€50m) per season and is set to receive an incredible £85m (€100m) signing-on bonus.

Some fans have reacted angrily to the news that Mbappe is set to snub Madrid, who beat PSG 3-2 on aggregate in the last 16 of the Champions League earlier this season.
"Mbappe got a loser mentality," posted one Twitter user.
Another wrote: "If true he's wasting another two years of what could be an amazing career."

A third added: "Why would Mbappe want to stay there? Just makes no sense, they're not going to win the Champions League.
"Madrid have a much better chance and he's wanted to join them for years, why change now?"
Despite the reports in the French media, Mbappe's mother insists no final decision has been made over the striker's future.
"There is no agreement in principle with Paris Saint-Germain or any other club," said Fayza Lamari.

"Discussions around Kylian's future continue in great serenity to allow him to make the best choice, in the respect of all the parties."
Last week, Mbappe snapped at a reporter when asked about PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino's claim that the striker will "100 per cent" be at the club next season.
A journalist asked the World Cup winner: "Tonight, the coach spoke about a future with you here next season."
To which Mbappe replied: "That’s enough now (with the questions)."
