A psychologist accused in the death of Diego Maradona told an Argentine court that the soccer legend had bipolar disorder and narcissistic personality traits, testimony that shifted attention to the star's mental health, addiction history, and the medical care he received in his final weeks.
Carlos Díaz, a psychologist and addiction specialist who treated Maradona shortly before his death, testified in Buenos Aires that the former Argentina captain had multiple chronic conditions, including substance addiction, bipolar disorder, and narcissistic personality disorder. He is one of seven medical professionals on trial for alleged criminal responsibility in Maradona's death.
