Health scare for Maradona
Diego Maradona
Argentine legend Maradona wants to return to Cuba
Football legend Diego Maradona has been rushed to hospital with high blood pressure and a fever, according to medical sources in Buenos Airies.

But Maradona was later readmitted to the psychiatric clinic where he is undergoing drug rehabilitation therapy.

The 43-year-old former Argentina captain nearly died earlier this year with heart and lung problems.

He is in dispute with his family who are refusing to let him continue his cocaine addiction treatment in Cuba.
