French TV channel Canal+ captured Mbappe venting his frustrations about Neymar to Gueye saying he would not have passed that ball to him.
RMC Sport via Daily Star report Mbappe's comments as: "He (Neymar) does not give me that pass."
There had been tensions between the France international and the rest of the PSG squad in recent times.
A few months back, Mbappe was absent from former Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera's birthday party which was attended by most players.
Then he was spotted walking into training alone, some distance behind the rest of his team-mates who were laughing and joking.
Mbappe linked with Real Madrid move
Meanwhile, Real Madrid have reportedly made a massive £137million bid for want-away PSG star Kylian Mbappe, but PSG are yet to respond to the proposal.
Football insider Fabrizio Romano gave an interesting update on the Mbappe situation.
Romano stated that PSG President Nasser Al Khelaifi “is the only one who will decide Mbappé’s future and he always said he wants to keep Kylian at PSG this summer”.
Messi struggling on and off he pitch at PSG
YEN.com.gh earlier reported that following his move to French club Paris Saint Germain, Argentine legend Lionel Messi is yet to find a permanent apartment in the French capital.
The six-time Ballon d’Or winner who left Barcelona to join PSG on £1million-a-week deal has continued to struggle on the pitch.
England legend Michael Owen earlier stated that the inclusion of the 34-year-old in Mauricio Pochettino’s squad will only make the team weaker.
It went from bad to worse when Messi was substituted against Lyon last weekend, despite that his side were trailing.
