Argentina legend and World Cup hero Diego Maradona has been taken to hospital with internal bleeding in his stomach, according to reports in Mexico.
The 58-year-old is currently the manager at Mexican side Dorados de Sinaloa, but was back in his homeland of Argentina recently.
Maradona's lawyer confirmed that the Argentine was undergoing immediate tests, including an endoscopy, with his family at the medical facility in Buenos Aires where he is being held.
The former Napoli star was expected to return to Mexico for Dorados' first game of the new year despite rumours that had been circulating that he was on the verge of quitting, after the side narrowly missed out on promotion last season.
