Diego Maradona has been snapped wearing an Arsenal shirt, fuelling talk he’s a closet Gooner.
The legendary Argentina attacker was pictured wearing one of the club’s polo shirts as he met Napoli striker Arek Milik.
Maradona, who played for Napoli himself, is regarded as one of the greatest players to have ever graced a football pitch but he appears to have a real soft spot for Arsene Wenger’s side.

Funnily enough, it’s not the first time he’s been pictured in an Arsenal shirt, after his daughter Giannina Maradona uploaded a picture of her father to Instagram last year.
Maradona has previously admitted Arsenal are his favourite team in England.
‘I am a fan of Arsenal when I am in England,’ he said.
‘They play beautiful football. They break quickly – they defend and attack as one.’
And the Argentine once went even further by claiming he would love to manage The Gunners.
‘Of course I would be interested [in working in England],’ he said.
‘I was looking at Arsenal and Chelsea, and talking to Kevin Keegan. Everything so perfect there.
‘The players are surrounded by everything they need. It’s phenomenal.’
So there you have it, Maradona loves the Arsenal!
