Arguably the greatest soccer player in the history of the game — and a certified crazy man — Diego Armando Maradona has been denied a visa to enter the United States for a Disney World vacation with his 4-year-old grandson.
"El Diego," 52, was hoping to travel from his current location in Dubai, enter the US and spend a few days at the Magic Kingdom with the grandson, one of his daughters and his new soccer-playing girlfriend Rocio Oliva who is 30 years younger than him.
The grandson, by the way, is the child of his daughter Giannina and ex-boyfriend Sergio Agüero, of Manchester City. Agüero broke it off with Giannina a few months ago.
It is understood that the visa refusal was a political decision due to his poor relationship with the country.
Apparently he also pleaded his case in person at the US embassy in Dubai, but his Visa application was still refused, with The Sun’s conveniently placed source describing the decision as purely ”political” before telling the tabloid:
“[Maradona's] relationship with the US has never been good. His friendships with Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez and other enemies of the US stopped him being given permission before.
“It was a bit of a kick in the teeth for Diego. The family were really excited about the holiday.”
This also isn't the first time Maradona has been denied entry into the US. A source close to the story for The Sun revealed the following:
