Napoli's betrayal of Diego Maradona that angered his fans and Lionel Messi

Diego Armando Maradona has been one of the best soccer players in the world and in history, for many people, and not only for Argentines, Diego Maradona is even the best in history, ahead of Pelé and Lionel Andres Messi.

On November 25, 2021, which coincided with a year after his death, a statue of Diego Armando Maradona, an authentic idol in southern Italy, was inaugurated in Naples. However, this Thursday they reported from Italy that the famous sculpture was returned to its creator.

After it was difficult to find an appropriate place for it, finally one of the Maradona statues (the other is the one with the golden left foot) that is located in the vicinity of the Napoli stadium was returned to Sepe, generating enormous controversy.

Through a resolution, the Naples City Council explained that it could not accept Sepe's donation since the value of the work would be far greater than the donor's spending possibilities. On the other hand, the authorities explained that they would ensure that the sculpture is returned to the person who made it, so that they can place it in another place but well away from the field.

According to the newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, Sepe is very bitter and prepared to appeal this determination, but the judiciary is also investigating to understand if all the procedures have been completed in a good way. As for the fans, they have expressed themselves on social networks, citing the club and demanding stronger explanations than those they are giving.
