# Diego Maradona

> The Argentine playmaker who dribbled past five England defenders for what FIFA voters called the Goal of the Century, then admitted the earlier goal came from the Hand of God. Both in the same 1986 World Cup quarterfinal. That's the Maradona problem: genius and transgression, inseparable.

## Bio

Born 30 October 1960, Diego Armando Maradona earned the nickname El Pibe de Oro as a teenager and became the first player to break the world transfer record twice - £5 million to Barcelona in 1982, £6.9 million to Napoli in 1984. At Napoli he delivered the club's first Serie A title and a second three years later, until a cocaine ban ended his time there. He captained Argentina to the 1986 World Cup trophy, winning the Golden Ball, and earned 91 caps across four tournaments. After retiring he managed clubs across three continents and coached Argentina at the 2010 World Cup. He died 25 November 2020, ranked by AIPS as the second greatest footballer of the past century after Pelé.
