EA Sports announced the suspension of Argentine legend Diego Maradona from the FIFA 22 football game.

EA Sports said it had taken the decision to remove Maradona from its FIFA 22 game due to a legal dispute, and issued a statement explaining the reasons and reasons for its decision.

“Due to a third-party legal dispute, we must suspend Maradona’s participation in FIFA Ultimate Team Packs, Ultimate Draft Packs and Soccer Aid World XI,” the company said in a statement.

“Maradona’s Icon Items will not be available in Squad Building Challenges and FUT Draft, and his price range will remain at its current value until further notice,” the statement added.

He continued, “We respect the players’ disappointment, and we hope to return one of football’s greatest icons to the game in the future,” according to the Spanish newspaper, Marca.

The statement concluded by saying: “We hope that this issue regarding Maradona’s naming rights will be resolved soon.”

According to the Argentine Infobae website, EA Sports signed a friend of the late star, Stefano Cisse, to take advantage of the rights of Maradona’s name, including his participation in her games, but the latter could not prove his ownership in court, and therefore these rights are no longer legal.

The Argentine judiciary is investigating 7 people in the case of Maradona’s death, in order to reveal whether they provided the necessary care for the player to keep his life, and the prison sentence in such cases ranges from 8 to 25 years.

These seven are neurosurgeon Leopoldo Lucchi, psychiatrist Agostina Kasachov, psychiatrist Carlos Diaz, home care coordinator Nancy Forlini, nurse coordinator Mariano Peroni, nurses Ricardo Omar Almiron and Dahiana Madrid.

All of them testified before the Argentine judiciary, which has been in the process of hearing the testimony of everyone in the case for months.

It is reported that the Argentine legend, Maradona, had died on November 25, 2020, in Buenos Aires, at the age of 60.
