A legal battle is ongoing since Maradona died from a cardiac arrest on November 25.
According to La Repubblica, Maradona’s will could be worth up to $100m with the former Napoli and Barcelona star who had excluded his ex-wife Veronica Ojeda and his daughters from his testament.
Diego Jr. was born in 1986 but was only recognized by Maradona in 2007.
"Inheritance is now the last of my thoughts, I would have preferred to starve all my life instead of facing this problem,” Maradona’s son told Canale 5.
“We children were all brought together for the sake of my father. Today the situation is so tangled that I cannot afford to express a judgment, and among other things, there is an investigation in progress.”
Maradona could have had up to 11 children who are now waiting for a DNA test.
“In Argentina there are many false versions coming out, for my life I respect a certain kind of struggles, but you have to do it in a human way,” Maradona’s son added.
“When you go out to a cemetery with your lawyer and the press to ask for a exhumation of the body 48 hours after a person is dead, it sucks. I don’t accept that.
“I respect people who act with the right procedures, I have always said that if they are my brothers, we are here for everyone, with open arms, but you can’t make a war because my father is no longer here and he can’t defend himslef.”
