“They play beautiful football, said Maradona of Arsenal in 2008. “They break quickly – they defend and attack as one. I am a fan of Arsenal when I am in England.
“When I was 19 they tried to buy me and another player from Argentinos Juniors – around the time Ricky Villa and Ossie Ardiles signed for Tottenham.
“But it didn’t happen. I sometimes wonder what might have happened.”
