Argentinean football legend Diego Maradona has been accused of kicking a magazine photographer in the groin area.

Enrique Medina of Gente Magazine has filed a police report claiming he was attacked by the football legend outside Diego Maradona father’s house.

He said Maradona ran towards him and kicked him in the groin and upper leg area. Maradona has had a rocky relationship with journalists who he sees as pests who follow him everywhere. Earlier this year he threw rocks at camera men who followed him from the airport.
