“I will talk to De Laurentiis, that is no problem,” Maradona told Tiki Taka. “I love Napoli, everyone knows that.
“At the moment I am working in Dubai and I’m very happy.
“Maybe if I can sort out my problems, I would love to come back to Italy.
“If I came back I have always said I would want to contribute a lot.
“I would like to come back to Italy as a normal person though.
“Yesterday I was a fraud, but now I feel people are starting to change their perceptions.
“Now I think they are understanding that I’m not like that because we are demonstrating with facts that the courts are wrong.”
