The heart of Maradona. On the contrary, the heart of the Maradona, in the plural: it would be the perfect title for a play by Eduardo De Filippo. Because here the heart is truly a metaphor for life, it is the summary and projection of a cascade of feelings, it is at the same time a blessing and a curse, joy and despair, relief and obsession.

A heart attack takes away Hugo Maradona, brother of the Pibe de Oro and fresh is still the news of the anticipated farewell to football, due to heart problems, of Aguero, the Kun of a thousand Argentine dreams, for a certain period son-in-law of Diez, through marriage (later failed) with Giannina, the daughter of Dieguito.

The heart of the Maradona, yes. Huge also in the waste, in the dilapidations, in the crapulian ostentation of a well-being seen and experienced as an escape from misery.

In fact, you don’t understand Maradona, now understood as the head of the family, if you don’t go back to the origins of the lob myth, to the house without running water, to the squalor of a neighborhood from which one could escape only by first imagining and then scoring crazy goals.

Diego, The ten, he had succeeded and immediately spent the first money to buy a decent apartment for his parents. His heart suggested it to him, too often listened to even to satisfy crazy requests: but this is another film, another story. Not infrequently bogus.

Sincero was instead the very strong bond Diego with his brothers. He got to the point that Hugo himself imposed the purchase by Napoli in 1987: he wanted him close, perhaps a teammate. He went so far as to publicly declare that his brother was destined to get better than him! But they told him that yes, in short, bald the Brazilian was a little more credible than Maradona2, due to the needs of the Napoli champion of Italy.

In the same period, the Pibe brigaded through friends and prosecutors and various scoundrels to even find a place in Lalo, another brother, even more scarce: there was talk of a membership at an amateur club in the province of Modena, but nothing came of it.

Returning to Hugo, discreet playmaker and nothing more, it turned out that he was loaned to Ascoli by president Costantino Rozzi. Hugo played little in Serie A and not always very well: however the family cadet in Naples was there like a baba and in fact he had returned to live there, suffering from a distance the disastrous agony of Diego, pulled down down by the vices, by the fake friends, true flatterers and a heart that could no longer bear the burden of existence.

Paradoxically, but perhaps up to a certain point, in the crazy post mortem chronicles it was even told that Diego’s heart would have disappeared, stolen by someone, ambushed like a pagan relic.

If it were true, to the anonymous guardian here and now it should be said that the heart of Maradona, indeed, the heart of the Maradona, it was too big.

For better or for worse.
