Biography

Argentine soccer champion who scored the winning goal in the final 1986 World Cup Game, when Argentina beat Mexico. Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, he was one of the two joint winners of the FIFA Player of the 20th Century award. A precocious talent, Maradona was given the nickname El Pibe de Oro ("The Golden Kid"), a name that stuck with him throughout his career.

He began playing soccer early and led the Argentina youth team to win the world cup in 1979. After the 1982 world cup in Spain, he joined Barcelona and played in Spain for two seasons. In 1984 he joined Naples, Italy and won two Italian Championships in 1986-1987 and 1989-1990, a Coppa Italia (1987), an UEFA cup (1989) and a Supercoppa Italiana (1990).

Maradona's career began a slow decline, when he failed a drug test in 1991 and was suspended from soccer. When the suspension was over, he played for Seville, Spain and then returned to Argentina.

In the World Cup of 1994 in the USA, Maradona was tested after the match against Nigeria and was found to have used "ephedrine." As a result, he was suspended for more than a year. For the remainder of his soccer career, he played for Argentina's Boca Juniors and, on 30 October 1997, he retired from football, aged 37.

His post-retirement years were not easy. He battled drug addiction. In late February 2005, the retired Argentine soccer star lost his lawsuit in an Italian court and was ordered to pay 30 million euro ($40 million) in back taxes to the Italian government. As if his addictions and financial troubles weren’t enough, his weight ballooned since his retirement to 280 pounds (130 kg) on a 5’5” (1.65 m) frame while he battled his addictions primarily in Cuba. On 9 March 2005 he checked out of a Colombia hospital four days after having gastric bypass surgery in an attempt to lose weight and regain health.

His 5th child, Diego Fernando Maradona Ojeda, was born on 13 February 2013 at 11:57 PM in Buenos Aires, by his long-time partner Veronica Ojeda.

On 2 November 2020, Maradona was admitted to a hospital in La Plata, supposedly for psychological reasons. A day later, he underwent emergency brain surgery to treat a subdural hematoma. He was released on 12 November after successful surgery and was supervised by doctors as an outpatient. On 25 November 2020, at the age of 60, Maradona died of a heart attack at his home in Tigre, Buenos Aires.

Source Notes

Birth certificate in hand from Sy Scholfield, copy on file (time recorded as 7:05 AM), downloaded in October 2022 from an online article published soon after Maradona's death. The article is about a citizen who found the certificate in a room in the the Hotel San Juan de Girón, along with a permission document that Maradona's father had given his son so he could leave the country because he was a minor.

("Maradona olvidó en un hotel de Bucaramanga," Antena 2+, 26 November 2020 [1].)

Previously, in August 2003 Daniel Churba quoted biography by Sergio Levinsky for the same time of 7:05 AM: "Maradona: Rebelde con Causa" (Editorial Corregidor, 1996).

In October 2004, Scholfield noted another biography, "Hand of God" by Jimmy Burns (Bloomsbury) which states that he was born at night when his mother saw "a star, glowing in the Southern Hemisphere" reflected on the hospital floor "like a pearl."

In October 2022 Pío G. Gowland wrote by email: "In 1990, I phoned the Buenos Aires Astrological Centre and the information I received was that the mother of Maradona communicated to a director of the centre, that the birth occurred at 6:40 AM."
