Argentina's 1986 World Cup soccer winning captain Diego Maradona has three children in Cuba and will travel to the country to legally recognise them, his lawyer told Argentine media.
Diego Maradona, 58, now a technical director at Mexican club Dorados de Sinaloa, has five children from other relationships with different women.
"We are going to do the DNA tests. They are from different women and Diego will recognise them when he returns to Cuba," Morla told Argentine newspaper Clarín.The lawyer said that the claims were going through the Cuban legal system but that Maradona, one of the greatest soccer players of all time, planned to give the children his surname in the near future.
During that time, he developed an unlikely friendship with Fidel Castro, including getting a tattoo of the late Cuban revolutionary's face on his calf.
