On the other hand, in soccer Maradona during his career was consecrated as the best in the world and today no one can deny that everything he achieved at the time with Napoli and with the Argentine national soccer team was something that left a huge legacy for the new generations of soccer players.
And is that both figures stood out above those of his time for being considered the greatest in their respective areas so it is worth asking, what do these two celebrities have to do and what is worth hundreds of thousands of euros?

The idea that Michael Jackson copied from Maradona and for which he paid hundreds of thousands of euros


It turns out that at the time when the "Pelusa" played for Napoli in 1987, he could not resist getting one of the most talked-about cars of the time: the Ferrari Testarossa, which at that time had a price of 430,000 dollars. But undoubtedly the most striking thing was that instead of having the characteristic red color of the cars of the Italian house, the footballer decided on a black color, which unleashed criticism at the time.


However, he was not the only one, since according to the Sumum section of the ABC media, Michael Jackson copied the idea to the 10 and got himself a model just like it. And the interesting thing about the car Maradona bought is the price it fetched at an auction in 2016, in which the car was sold for 260,000 euros.
