That’s what Marca says; they gave us some information about the strange situation this evening.

Mihic has been Real’s medical director since 2017, when he took over from Dr. Olmo, who was leaving the position.

But in the past few months, both players and staff at Real Madrid have questioned the Croatian’s methods.

Carlo Ancelotti’s team has had a lot of problems in the first few months of the season. Eder Militao and Thibaut Courtois have both been ruled out for a long time with torn ACLs.

What finally made things worse was how Mihic dealt with recent problems with new summer hire Arda Güler.

The Turkish player Güler hasn’t played for his new team yet because he’s been hurt twice in the last few weeks.

There was a lot of fighting in the locker room and the office, and this weekend, it was decided that Real Madrid would no longer work with Mihic.
