The family of Diego Armando Maradona will sue his former agent Stefano Ceci for copyright issues, Maradona’s son revealed.

Napoli released a special kit to honour their legendary No.10 one year after his death. Maradona died from a heart attack in Tigre on November 25, 2020.

The kit has Maradona’s face printed on the front, but Diego Junior, one of Maradona’s sons, said the Partenopei never asked for authorization from the family.

“We didn’t give the green light to this operation. That shirt is an honour for us, but we are sorry that Napoli did not involve us,” Maradona Jr. told Adnkronos.

“Stefano Ceci gave the authorization, he used to be my dad’s agent, but he no longer has their role. Us relatives are the only ones who can provide these authorizations. It sounds strange that a club like Napoli gave credibility to this person. Legal proceedings against Ceci have already started in Argentina,” Maradona Junior ensured.
