A new chapter opens in the tense relationship between Diego Maradona and his daughters Dalma and Gianinna, who in recent days expressed concern about their father's health and lashed out against the people taking care of him.
The response from the coach of Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata came in the form of an audio that was made public. In the recording, the former football player speaks angrily about Gianinna, who stated that her father has had a problem with alcohol for a long time.
"Listen to me, stop saying that I am drunk. My own daughter comes to tell me this. I carried my daughter, unconscious, to the house when she was 15 years old. This is the truth and it hurts me," Maradona says in the leaked audio.
"But I won't back down, I won't back down. They think that by pressuring me, they will make me lose everything that the mother stole from me. Don't get involved, girls, don't get involved," Diego added, referring to the legal battle he is involved in with Claudia Villafañe, the mother of Dalma and Gianinna.
