Watch: Footballer Diego Maradona turns singer for girlfriend, what is he upto?

Dubai: Is football legend Diego Maradona contemplating a new profession? At a product launch in Dubai, the Argentine was filmed exercising his vocal chords for his girlfriend Rocio Oliva.

Barely two weeks back, the couple hit headlines when Maradona was accused of hitting the 24-year-old. The video created waves on social media but the footballer denied hitting the lady. He said that he just knocked the phone off her hands.

Here's what happened then (See below)

But the video clearly shows the lady shouting, “Stop Diego, calm down, stop hitting.”

Nonetheless, the mood looked different here despite the 54-year-old’s on-off relationship. The footballer got into the act while on stage. He later claimed, “it was part of the show.”

The words of the song “Te Quiero” means “I want you, I love you” in Spanish.

Damage control?
