Maradona was in Italy ahead of a charity match organised by Roma captain Francesco Totti and singer Eros Ramazzotti scheduled on the 12th of May. He found some time to speak to the media about the recent events surrounding Ronaldo.

“Ronaldo is an incredible player; the things that happen in his personal life are his own problem,” said Maradona, a man not exactly famed for enjoying the quiet side of life himself.

“He will always be great. Nobody can judge his personal life.”

Ronaldo has always been a great admirer of Maradona and it is good to see the respect is mutual.
