Napoli Diego Maradona

For the first time, we find that there is a player bigger than a team
We always say that the club is bigger than the player and that the team does not depend on a player
But in the case of Maradona, things were exactly the opposite due to the amount of talent contracted with him
Maradona's fame and potential were greater than Napoli's, and no one can deny that Napoli changed dramatically and increased its championships and popularity 

after contracting with Diego Maradona.

Maradona came to Naples from Barcelona in 1984 and left Napoli in 1991.

Meaning that when Maradona won the famous World Cup with the Argentine national team in 1986, he was at that time a professional with the Napoli club.

When Maradona reached the 1990 World Cup final against Germany with the Argentina national team, when they lost the title, he was also a Napoli player.

This indicates that it is the best period in the player’s history at the club and national team levels

It is enough that Napoli won the league twice in its history, and twice during the era of Diego Armando Maradona in the 86-87 and 89-90 seasons.

He led the team to the league champions in the 87-88 and 88-89 seasons

Maradona also won the Italian Cup with Napoli 86-87 after defeating Atalanta in the final, first leg, 3-0, 1-0.

And runner-up in the cup 88-89 after defeat by Sampdoria in the final

With Napoli, he won the Italian Super Cup 90 at the expense of “The Old Lady” Juventus with overwhelming superiority and a historic score of 5-1.

Maradona led Napoli to win the European Uefa Cup 88-89 at the expense of Stuttgart, Germany, with a score of 2-1 in the first leg and 3-3 in the return, 

after defeating his great compatriot Bayern Munich in the semi-finals.

These are championships that Napoli cannot and will not be able to obtain unless there is a legendary player like Diego Armando Maradona.

Diego Maradona was already bigger than Napoli

He was an inspiring player for an entire city, a city that suffered from racism in the rest of Italy

When Maradona came, he defeated all the big clubs and the fans asked him to do so

He beat Juventus, beat Milan, beat Inter Milan, beat Roma, Lazio and others

Southern Italy has become famous not only in Italy but throughout the world
