Diego Armando Maradona, the Argentinian football star, is a prominent contemporary figure whose role in modern sports has attained a significant mythological dimension. Maradona’s legendary status positions him as one of the most iconic athletes of the modern era. The myth surrounding Maradona is not solely based on his extraordinary skill and influence on the football field, but also on his actions both before and after matches. He represents a powerful symbol of national identity within the socio-historical context of Argentina, while simultaneously embodying a transnational identity in relation to post-colonial discourses, club football, and the global nature of the sport. Maradona’s persona thus transcends local, national, and global identity levels, uniting them in a complex interrelationship. Soccer, as an area of study, has become increasingly significant within the subfield of the anthropology of sport. Anthropological analyses of football explore its social and identity-shaping roles, examining the myths that emerge from the sport. Contemporary folklore and associated myths are crucial in shaping urban culture, influencing diverse groups such as youth, women, and local communities, by constructing compelling narratives around various forms of identity. Maradona, in particular, stands as a figure who successfully crafted modern myths within the world of football.
