Diego Maradona has been hit with a staggering \u00a333million tax bill for alleged unpaid taxes during his successful career with Napoli in the late 1980s.<\/p>\n

The ‘hand of God’ footballer, who many consider one of the greatest players of all time, has been notified by Italy’s tax collection agency that it will freeze his assets to pay off the outstanding debt.<\/p>\n

However, it is claimed the move is simply a formal procedure – with the papers only having a 180-day validity and therefore having to be renewed whenever Maradona is in Italy.<\/p>\n

‘This is not putting pressure,’ said a source at the Equitalia tax recovery agency.<\/p>\n

The 52-year-old star, who has been in Milan promoting a DVD series on his life and watching his Napoli play Roma, was handed the tax bill – amounting to 39million euros – in his hotel room.<\/p>\n

He is believed to have signed the notification, which legally enables authorities to seize the star’s assets in Italy.<\/p>\n

During previous visits to Italy, tax agents have confiscated \u00a33,700 diamond earrings and two Rolex watches worth \u00a39,000 from Maradona.<\/p>\n

The former cocaine addict is now a sports ambassador for the United Arab Emirates following his departure from local club Al Wasl in 2012.<\/p>\n
