Diego Maradona bloated, bedridden and resigned before death, says masseur

Seven healthcare professionals have been on trial since mid-April in Argentina for potential negligence.

Diego Maradona was bedridden, suffering from excess body fluid and appeared resigned to his fate in his final days, according to the testimony of the Argentinian football legend’s masseur at the trial into the circumstances of his death in 2020.

Maradona “wouldn’t get out of bed, he didn’t want to eat, he didn’t want to wash, he didn’t want to look after his personal hygiene”, Nicolas Taffarel testified on Thursday.
