Diego Maradona (1960–2020)  
 
The god of Napoli. You cannot miss the face of Diego Maradona when in Napoli. The five-foot, five-inch Maradona was a star football player whose image is reproduced in graffiti, tourist trinkets, flags and various other items. He did not come cheap. When Maradona joined the Napoli team, one newsreader remarked, “the poorest city in Italy buys the most expensive player in the world.” While his playing dazzled, Maradona faced controversies regarding illegal recreational drugs as well as an association with the Camorra—the Neapolitan mafia.
