Welcome back, we’ve been expecting you

You’ll all know this by now, of course, but Diego Maradona has celebrated the release of an Italian film about his life by being taken into hospital in Buenos Aires. Again. The reason given was an ‘imbalance’ in el pibe de oro‘s health, nothing more specific – although the doctors wanted to make it very, very clear indeed that no drug consumption was involved. Maradona’s weight was apparently beginning to worry his personal doctor again last week, and the current situation, according to said doctor, was brought on by a silly amount of eating, drinking and smoking.

More details will of course be posted as and when they’re made available.
