The former Argentina attacking midfielder and coach is expected to undergo surgery for cranial edema on Nov. 3. It had also been announced that the ex-footballer would undergo therapy to treat his addiction to alcohol, according to media reports in Argentina.

Diego Armando Maradona was responsible for winning the 1986 World Cup in Mexico for Argentina.

Abroad, he played for European soccer clubs such as Futbol Club Barcelona and S. S. C. Napoli, which earned him two Serie A titles with the Italian club. During his career, he scored 34 goals in 91 games playing for Argentina's national soccer team in four World Cups.

He represented Argentina in the 1990 Italy World Cup final, which they would have lost to their West German counterparts. Unfortunately, Maradona was unable to overcome his cocaine addiction and was banned for 15 months after testing positive for doping in 1991. Consequently, he was permanently suspended from the Argentina national football team in 1994 on June 25 when he failed a doping test.

He retired from professional football in 1997, on his 37th birthday. Maradona was subsequently appointed head coach of the national team in 2008 and left after the 2010 World Cup, in which his team was defeated by Germany in the quarter-finals.

He went on to manage teams in the United Arab Emirates and Mexico and was in charge of Argentina's top flight at the time of his death.
