Argentina Sends Delegation To UK To Demand The Return of Maradona's World Cup Shirt On The Day It Is Due To Sell For £5m

An Argentinian delegation has launched a last-minute bid to snatch Diego Maradona's infamous 'Hand of God' shirt going under the hammer for £5million at auction today. 

Wealthy bidders have the chance to buy the diminutive playmaker's shirt from the 1986 World Cup win against England, a game in which he scored the 'Hand of God' goal and the 'Goal of the Century'.

The late football icon swapped shirts with England midfielder Steve Hodge after full time and he has been in possession of the treasured item for the last 35 years.
