The award for the recycling of the day has been won by the newspaper Abc, which has dug up old interviews and statements by Rafa Nadal to build a topic clearly intended to chase clicks and spark debate on social media. The headline was as follows: "I am happy to be Spanish, but when the tax bill arrives, I am a little less so". The newspaper begins the report with a very significant fact, which is that according to Forbes magazine, Nadal earned 135 million dollars in cash between 2002 and 2024. It should be noted that this is only one part, and perhaps not the main one, of the Majorcan tennis player's source of income. It is estimated that income from sponsorships multiplies this figure by 3 or 4. And then we arrive at the phrase in question. It corresponds to an interview with the Corriere della Sera from the year 2020, the same one in which he explains that his entire family is pro-Madrid even though some switched to Barça when his uncle, Miquel Àngel Nadal, played there. He did not.
