Diego Maradona's psychologist testified on Thursday at a trial over the death of the Argentina football legend, stating that he had bipolar disorder and a narcissistic personality disorder. The psychologist, who has not been named in public reports, said: 'There is a clinical picture here: an addiction, a bipolar disorder and a personality disorder.'
The trial, which began in March 2025 in San Isidro, Argentina, involves seven medical professionals accused of negligence in Maradona's death. Maradona died on November 25, 2020, at age 60, from a heart attack while recovering from brain surgery.
The psychologist's testimony is part of ongoing proceedings to determine if the medical team failed to provide adequate care. Maradona had a history of substance abuse and health issues, including liver and kidney problems.
