The recent accusations regarding Real Madrid's medical staff has brought the club into the headlines for all the wrong reasons.

As it seems modern football is a lot more than just stepping onto the pitch and giving your all for the club you represent and how can an ever evolving club like Real Madrid move contrary to that?

Los Blancos are currently facing serious charges regarding the misdiagnosis of Kylian Mbappe's injury as according to the allegations the club's medical team mistakenly did a MRI scan on Mbappe's perfectly fine right knee and certified the French superstar fit to play in December.

But as it turned out it was the left knee which was actually damaged and the 27-year-old seemingly played for three matches with a partial posterior knee ligament tear as the esteemed club finally published a report on the affected leg describing it as a 'knee sprain'.

Mbappe recently travelled to Paris in order to get his knee treated as his doctor back home where they decided to avoid surgery and go with a more conservative approach to heal the injury.

Despite the recent mishap which could have posed a serious threat to the Frenchman's career, Mbappe now looks fully fit as he came on as a substitute against Manchester City and Atletico Madrid respectively and is now poised to represent his country against Brazil tomorrow.

Although as it seems, Los Blancos has now been charged with another serious accusation as the club's former nutritionist Itziar Gonzalez posted on her Intagram saying (h/t GOAL), "I don’t know what’s worse: this, or the fact that the distribution of supplements (to the players; editor’s note) comes from the free version of ChatGPT."

The former Spanish Royal Family nutritionist had to leave the club in August last year describing his time at Madrid as "horrible" and also accused the club of having no nutritional support before she arrived at the club.

Los Blancos seemingly brought back Dr. Niko Mihic at the start of the year following the disastrous series of events surrounding their star player's injury addressal which has been the talk of the footballing world as of recent.

Following the recent revelations a lot of things which were unknown to a major chunk of the footballing community has now been brought into the light as a club like Real Madrid which is the home to the world's most talented players and all the modern amenities like a closed roof, a retractable turf and ofcourse all the trophies which they won over the years at the same time can lack in areas which also play a crucial role in a footballer's daily life and things which are a must need for the current physically demanding nature of the modern game.
