DIEGO MARADONA – GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERIES

It might not have been obvious, but legendary Argentine football star Diego Maradona also struggled with excessive weight gain. Even though he had an impressive investment portfolio, he subsequently developed weight gain even when he tried to watch his body. According to the report, after undergoing two gastric bypass surgeries with little or no effect, he had to turn to the aid of a German doctor. Since then, Diego has looked a bit better or, at least, not as plump as the Chubby Maradona of the ’90s.

Anyway, Diego was an excellent playmaker and instinctual goal scorer during his time. He was even considered a hero to the Argentine people, having established their national team and brought them to win a World Cup in the mid-80s. After retiring from football, Diego pursued a career as a manager in the same sport, alongside his Argentinos Juniors teammate Carlos Fren. This legend was indeed a hero, and his legacy will remain in the world of football forever.
