In 1984 Diego Maradona arrived in Naples and all hell broke loose. The world’s most celebrated football genius and Europe’s most dysfunctional city were a perfect match for each other. Diego could do as he pleased whilst performing miracles, but when the magic faded he became a prisoner of the city.
