Football, identity, and pride - intertwined.
“I am Maradona, who makes goals, who makes mistakes. I can take it all, I have shoulders big enough to fight with everybody.”
He arrived at Napoli in 1984, akin to a god. The fanfare was off the charts when Maradona – the great Argentine who commanded the world’s attention - touched down in Italy. Could one man turn a team that had never won a Serie A Italian League title into a winner? The pressure was immense, but pressure is a gift to the greats. Maradona not only won the Serie A Italian League title twice, he guided Napoli to a Coppa Italia, a Supercoppa and even a European title in the form of the UEFA Cup.
A man? No, a revolutionary. A wizard of strength and brawn. A soccer god, the likes of which we’ll never see again. The impact of #10 is forever. As part of our “culture and influence” spotlight, we have this Maradona drop - a pom pom beanie and striped socks!
