The Laso case deals the penultimate blow to Real Madrid. It has been more than a year and a half since the Victorian coach’s divisiveness and inexplicability still lingered over one of the most turbulent periods in recent White history.
And among them was what happened to Miguel Angel Lopez Andrades, who has been the Madrid club’s doctor for the last few seasons. The doctor was fired a few days before the departure of the current Bayern Munich coach for refusing to sign Laso’s sick leave during the 2022 Endesa League finals.

It was because of the heart problem that the stream of events that led to his dismissal was born: an emergency dismissal, an ACB title and a sudden dismissal from Real Madrid due to some alleged medical reports that the most successful coach in his history has ever seen .
“I have mine and I’m very calm. The cardiologists who treated me and those with whom I consulted saw me very well.”– Vitorian admitted in the mentioned interview. “If Pablo Lazo insisted on something that was harmful to his health, he would be stupid. Even my family would tell me.”
