Kolkata: Argentine soccer legend Diego Armando Maradona’s visit to Kolkata is delayed by another month. Maradona, himself posted a message on his Facebook wall that he will visit the City of Joy in the month of November.
This is not the first time that the schedule of Maradona’s visit had to be changed. Maradona’s visit was originally scheduled on September 19 (during Mahalaya) before being postponed to October 2 and then deferred till October 8 and now in another post he has said that he will come to Kolkata in November.
Here goes the post of Maradona.” This is incredible… my dream is to visit Kolkata one more time, but everything was changed for November!”
“This land always moves me, because there, Mother Teresa cared for and educated so many poor children. That’s why I want to take them my football, because I think the ball makes you want to live.
That´s why I will be there in November with Satadru Dutta, the Honourable Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee, Urban Development Minister Bobby Hakim, Sujit Bose, Sourav Ganguly and all the sponsors. They all were very respectful with me.”
“There, I will participate in all the scheduled events, to be with the people and the authorities.
See you soon India!!!”
