Diego Maradona, Argentinian football legend and winner of the 1986 World Cup, is no more among us. He was 60 and took his last breath today. The reason behind his death is stated to be a heart attack. His lawyer informed that it had been just three weeks since he had surgery on a blood clot in his brain.
He was at home when he took the last breath. Maradona will always be remembered for helping Argentina win the World Cup in 1986, dumping England out of the tournament. Off the pitch, the legendary footballer struggled juggling with alcohol and drug addiction.
According to Clarin.com, “While recovering at home, Maradona suffered a heart attack and passed away shortly afterward.”
Trending
“There are four ambulances at the door of the residence. They have summoned family members to come. It is serious,” the TyC Sports channel reported.
Back in 2009, his statement “I am black or white. I’ll never be gray” garnered huge applause for him.
Take a look at what Bollywood/Cricket celebs are tweeting about him:
