Diego Maradona's death has triggered an outpouring of grief around the world. Now comes the scramble for a share of the soccer legend's complex financial legacy, ranging from his iconic jerseys to luxury cars, image rights and even an amphibious tank.

BUENOS AIRES - Diego Maradona’s death has triggered an outpouring of grief around the world. Now comes the scramble for a share of the soccer legend’s complex financial legacy, ranging from his iconic jerseys to luxury cars, image rights and even an amphibious tank.Much like during the football idol’s life, the inheritance process is likely to be a messy affair between his large family, with eight children from six different partners as heirs to his assets, as well as his intangible heritage.

The process can last 90 days in a normal probate trial, the legal period for the heirs and creditors to present themselves, although Apolo said it could be far longer given the likelihood of “internal disputes” and opportunists seeking a payout.The estate of the World Cup champion, who at the time of his death was coach of the Argentine club Gimnasia y Esgrima, comprises properties, smart cars, investments and jewels he was gifted in different countries throughout his career.

Maradona was gifted two luxury cars in Dubai when he worked as Fujairah Football Club’s technical director and a HUNTA Overcomer amphibious “tank,” a vehicle which can “float on water,” during his time as honorary president of Belarus’ Dynamo Brest club.
