| A Marriage Made For The Tabloids: Maradona & Iran
If you were to ask Diego Maradona which club he dreams of coaching most, the answer would be succinct: All of them. The man may say Boca this week and Napoli next, but there will be a club after that…and a national team after that…and then another one. Suffice it to say, the man just wants to coach someone, anyone, and if he does, it’ll be a dream. The most unlikely yet delicious of marriages is hitting the rumor pages. If it goes through, the tabloids: Maradona to Iran. Very, very speculative at this point, but we dare to dream: “President Ahmadinejad: Maradona might be head coach of the national team,” read the headline splashed across the front page of Iranian daily Ebtekar on Monday, along with a large photograph of the World Cup winner. “When asked about reports of Maradona becoming Iran’s new head coach, he nodded his head,” the newspaper reported. Maradona, 50, is an admirer of Cuban leader Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez, the fiery left-wing president of Venezuela who is a close ally of Iran, and has expressed his admiration of Ahmadinejad. All three are foes of the United States. Neither of these men,cheap nfl jerseys, Maradona and Ahmadinejad, know any way to stay out of the papers – which, to be fair, is in the job description of the latter. Both are controversial with personalities which create something of an incessant buzz around them, with the possibility of some cosmic explosion should they join forces. FIFA has Iran ranked 57th, while ELO has it 35th in the world, but it’d most certainly be first in the hearts of journalists and bloggers alike should the dream pairing go through. |
