Maradona's shirt during Argentina's match against England in the 1986 World Cup was sold at the highest price in history .
The shirt that Diego Maradona wore when scoring his second goal (hand of god) in the 1986 World Cup quarter-final against England sold for a significant amount at auction, according to Sport 3. Of course, in the same match, Maradona managed to score a goal to Peter Shilton after a series of extraordinary dribbles from the middle of the field, and that goal is called the "goal of the century". Former England international Steve Hodge played in that World Cup game and changed shirts with Maradona after the game.
Sky Sports claimed in a report that Maradona's shirt was sold to an unknown buyer at an auction for 7.1 million pounds and became the most expensive shirt sold in the history of football. Of course, this title used to belong to Pele shirt. The jersey, worn by the Brazilian football legend in the 1970 World Cup final, sold for 157,750 pounds in March 2002.
Of course, the officials of the Argentine Football Federation wanted to take this shirt to the Maradona Museum in Buenos Aires, but Steve Hodge announced some time ago that he intends to sell this shirt, and finally this happened today. It was more than a year ago that Maradona lost his life and now his clothes have been sold at this exorbitant price.
