    Diego Maradona was buried without his heart so fans wouldn't steal it...

    The odd story is only the latest post-death scandal for the Argentine soccer legend, who was also recently accused of sex trafficking and abuse. Diego Maradona, the long-time heart and soul of Argentine soccer, is apparently buried without one of those things. After his November 2020 death, the soccer star was reportedly buried without his heart, according to a new book about his health written by an Argentine doctor and journalist.In his unreleased book, Nelson Castro reportedly claims that Maradona’s heart was removed prior to his burial to stop soccer fans from raiding his grave and stealing it.

    Castro to promote the book this week—‘La salud de Diego: la verdadera historia’ (Diego’s health: The True Story)—and made the startling claim about an alleged plan to retrieve Maradona’s heart.

    A really dedicated fan might want to keep it as a souvenir. It wouldn't be unprecedented.
