El Diego

'Operatically emotional...exceptionally vivid' Martin Amis, Guardian

Celebrate the life of one of the world's greatest footballers.

Diego Maradona. One thing is certain: he was the greatest footballer of his generation - and perhaps of all time. A poor boy from a Buenos Aires shanty-town, his genius with a ball took him to the heights of European and world football, and his struggle with the pressures of life inside and outside the game pulled him right back down again.

Following his sad passing, read the true story of Maradona's life in his own words.
