Diego Armando Maradona: hero or villain?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. Never before has Maradona given us his extraordinary story in his own words. Until now.

Diego Maradona was born in Buenos Aires in 1961. He is widely recognised as one of football s greatest players. He has played for Argentinos Juniors, Boca, Barcelona, Naples, Seville and Newell s Old Boys, but he will always be most strongly associated with the Argentinian national team. He lives in Dubai.

Daniel Arcucci is one of the most respected and recognized Argentinian sports journalists. He began his career at the legendary magazine El Gráfico in Buenos Aires. He met Diego Maradona in the Christmas of 1985. He covered the 86 Mexico World Cup and interviewed Maradona more than 150 times. His books To Meet Diego and I am the Diego of the People were both bestsellers in Argentina. In 2007, he was awarded the Platinum Konex award for sports journalism.
