We cannot say that Itziar Gonzalez de Arriba has good memories of his time at Real Madrid. The Spanish nutritionist, who started working with a few players like Dani Carvajal and Rodrygo in 2021, regularly returns to the unpleasant reception she received from Real’s medical service upon her arrival at “the biggest club in the world”.
“From the first moment, the medical service established a hostile climate,” she explained to Mark. From the first day, I was told that my presence was due to a whim of the president. The first week, they accused me of stealing a whole batch of food supplements. They have put obstacles in the way of my work: at the buffet, they serve foods that I do not recommend. »
Tackle with two feet off the medical staff
Fired at the end of the 2024-2025 season, Itziar Gonzalez de Arriba even filed a complaint so that “the president, the players and those close to me know the truth”. And to shed light on all the actions of the Real Madrid medical staff, she does not hesitate to bash them on social networks after the revelations on the examination of Kylian Mbappé’s bad knee to launch new barbs.
“Thank you Kylian, with a little luck, they will look for competent and educated people instead of narcissistic people who hurt the players,” the nutritionist posted in the story on Tuesday. I’ve said this before, but it’s very easy to humiliate myself to protect these people who work here. The worst part is that they are still there. But I don’t know which is worse: that, or the fact that they prescribe dietary supplements based on ChatGPT. »
