Diego Maradona is a retired Argentinian international who is found in PES 2009 in the Classic Argentina squad, under the false name of Malgani. Maradona is considered one of the best players that has ever played, alongside Brazilian Pele. He is a recommended player at all costs as he has many special abilities on top of his already outstanding current stats. Unfortunately his PES counterpart doesn't bare much resemblance to him in terms of appearance as his skin is too dark and his face is a default. However the edit mode can be used to build an almost preset worthy Maradona. Maradona is small in stature but has a high dribble accuracy which makes him one of the best attacking forwards as he is very hard to get the ball off.

Maradona is the head coach for the Argentinian National Side. In real life he is most famous for his spell at Napoli but he also played for Barcelona, Boca Juniors and Sevilla.

To make him appear in modes such as Be a Legend and Master League when starting these modes make sure that "Hidden Players" option is put to "Yes".
