Al Fahim Maradona not coming Al Fahim Maradona not coming

It was always too good to be true, however knowing Pompey there was always a slight po sibility it would happen. This was the general reaction to the news that Argentina head coach Diego Maradona will not be given a role at Portsmouth Football Club.News broke early this morning on arabianbusine s.com that the Argentine icon was interested in becoming a global amba sador for the club. Many believed it to be a similar LeBron James Jersey role to that of director-of-football, with Maradona overseeing manager Paul Hart and helping him in identifying potential transfer targets.Arabian Busine s claimed it had been made aware of emails sent by Maradona to his lawyer, Angel Oscar Moyano. Arabian Busine s were the first news source to announce Al-Fahims proposed takeover of Portsmouth, and have since been the number one source in providing accurate and George Mikan Jersey quality journalism regarding Pompey.Whereas if the story had been reported by another source, or broadcaster, the story would have been swept aside as ridiculous, because it came from Arabian Busine s, many believed it to have some credibility.Add to that Al Fahims supposed admiration for the football wizard, the story suddenly became a topic of interest amongst Pompey fans.The original article quotes Moyano as saying Maradona offers his mediation for signing players of a top level, who with the support of Diego Maradona will be ready to come to Portsmouth FC.The email goes onto say Maradona would have been prepared to have stepped down from his role as head coach of the Argentina national team.Speaking to Gulf News however, Al Fahim was quick to quash rumours of any link up between the two parties.The new Portsmouth chairman stated: We have Kobe Bryant Jersey no relation with Diego Maradona or anything else and the guy e-mailed (someone else) and not us so we have nothing to do with it.Interestingly enough, Al Fahim is set to open a Maradona Sports Caf in the United Arab Emirates later next year. In March, Al Fahim was reported to say Maradona was a man who had the ability and the potential to change football teams.Al Fahim then added: I dont know if Diego Maradona can be a good coach. I Dennis Schroder Jersey think he has to be the chairman of a club and have the right to choose and buy players. In Napoli, he started from zero and built the club (as JaVale McGee Jersey a player). He has the quality to change football teams.The small Argentines contract with the Argentine Football A sociation runs out after the 2010 World Cup, with the 48-year-old coach currently enjoying an annual salary of 750,000.So as a rather exciting and positive story is denied of any truth or value to Portsmouth Football Club, Pompey fans can sit back and look forward to this Saturdays pre-season friendly at BasingstokeDiego Maradona - maybe next year?
