Just to clear any doubts and to nip them in the bud.
I realize it’s a big deal to meet Maradona. He’s a legend and all, and to the majority of us he’s the best soccer player ever! But that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t meet people in his life, especially if it’s for business!
So yes, I have been extremely fortunate to meet Maradona, I got to spend time with him, his ex-wife, his daughter and her boyfriend. I’m so proud of it and they were two of the best days of my entire life!
Through his interpreter, we talked, we exchanged views, he even talked about politics, we took photos together and what touched me the most is that after he went back to Argentina his publicist called me to thank me with Maradona next to him. Maradona then took the phone and said something long, but the only thing I understood was: "thank you".
And now I’ll be posting some pictures that the world will see for the first time. YES, they have never been published before! EVER!!
- The only thing that kept Maradona going on, and that’s according to him, is the love of his daughters, Dalma and Gianinna.

- He has his daughters names tattooed on both his arms with the SAME FONT, Gianinna on his right arm and Dalma on his left, as illustrated.

- He has a tattoo of Che Guevara on his right arm that he’s proud of.

- When Maradona travels, he wears two watches, one with Argentina time and other with the time of the country he’s visiting.

- He’s not odd, eccentric, and he’s certainly not a freak. He’s not cocky or arrogant, (not anymore at least), although he should be.

- Maradona has a very good sense of humour. During his visit, he played soccer with some kids. While they were playing, a kid tossed the ball to Maradona a bit too high. So what does he do? He jumps and knocks the ball with his left arm (Maradona is left-handed, left-footed), and brought us flashes of what he did in 1986. Although not everyone who was there really got it, but it was hilarious! And do take my word on this, at his age right now, he still plays like a pro and can sure pull on a trick or two!

Still a master at soccer

- Although he’s divorced to his ex-wife, but no one stood by him like she did, and she still goes with him wherever he goes.
- Finally, I really hope he gets well soon. The world has never seen anything like him and never will!
Thank you Maradona

Mariam: it would’ve been irrelevant posting about it.
I don’t work for aspire, but I used to work for its marketing agency.
Sel3: forgot to mention that the testing mode is still on.
Man I am speechless, el diego is the only person I want to meet , I hope I can do it before another binge finishes him, he’s out of this world.
hareega: have you ever come out of a situation where you felt that you’re wiser and the wisdom inside you went up a notch? Like what happens to people when someone escapes death?
That was one of them.
