A scandal exploded with the money that the Argentinian legend left after his death.

Diego Armando Maradona died on November 25 of last year, in a date that will be remembered forever in the soccer world. Fans from all over the world went out to the streets to pay tribute to one of the greatest legends ever. Buenos Aires and Napoli where the two places where concentrations of persons took place.

Maradona was experiencing several health difficulties during the last months of his life and he was even hospitalized a week before his death. But, all in all, his life ended in his house in Buenos Aires, without any assistance, doctors or specialist who could make a last try to save him.

Since then, a big work started, as the fortune that Maradona had and the belongings of him had to be divided between their inheritors. Nevertheless, what should be a normal process ended being chaotic as it is now said that his old lawyer, Matías Morla, took away money that was not for him, but for his inheritors.

The family of the idol is now about to start the claim, with her daughters Dalma and Gianinna. It hasn’t revealed how much money the family deserved, but his old lawyer took, even though it won’t be less than $70 million. To that we have to add all the belongings, as luxury cars, mansions, jewelry and more, that his inheritors are about to divide between them.
