FIFA APPOINTS DIEGO MARADONA AS AN AMBASSADOR..

Diego Maradona has been given an ambassador role by FIFA. Maradona, 56, led Argentina to a World Cup title in 1986 but has been a harsh critic of the game’s governing body over the years.
However, the former Boca Juniors and Barcelona man announced his new role with the organisation via his Facebook page.
“Now it’s official,” Maradona said on his account. “Finally I can fulfill one of the lifelong dreams; to work for a clean and transparent FIFA alongside
people who really love football.”


Maradona is also set to be offered a similar role with former club Napoli once he has settled his tax affairs with the Italian authorities.

Maradona made 90 appearances for Argentina, scoring 34 goals in his stories international career.
It wants to ensure the Argentina great "has a major role in FIFA’s activities to promote the game across the globe," including with its Legends team.

The 56-year-old Maradona will be involved in "relevant development projects," FIFA said on Friday.

Maradona announced his new role on Thursday, hailing FIFA as "clean and transparent" under President Gianni Infantino.

Maradona feuded with former FIFA President Sepp Blatter and long-time Argentina soccer leader Julio Grondona, who was FIFA's senior vice-president when he died in 2014.
