Echoes from a God: Diego Maradona, the Manager and His Post Playing Life

di Rob Smith (Autore)

Pitch Publishing Ltd, 2026

Echoes from a God is the untold story of Diego Maradona’s post-playing life and turbulent years as a manager, explored through vivid storytelling, deep research and an unflinching emotional lens. It captures the tactical chaos, the moments of tenderness, the defiant press conferences, the collapses and recoveries, and the health scares that paralysed a nation each time his name appeared beside the word ‘emergency’. This was a man who could no longer conjure miracles with his left foot, but could still command devotion with a glance, a hug or a whispered word to a young player who’d grown up idolising him. This is not a story of trophies – there were none – but one of survival; of a man who needed football as oxygen; of a global icon who found meaning, family and purpose not in winning titles, but in remaining on the grass, in front of the people who adored him. Echoes from a God offers an intimate, moving and often breathtaking portrait of Maradona’s final act – flawed, fragile, ferocious and unforgettable. It is the Diego story the world has not yet heard.
