Diego Maradona wants to celebrate his 50th birthday next month by playing in a game with his old Napoli teammates in the San Paolo stadium.
Maradona told Monday's Gazzetta dello Sport that ''I've had everything in life: a family that I adore, a brilliant career, and now thank god I don't need anything, not even money. My only desire is to return to Naples.''
Maradona turns 50 on Oct. 30. He led Napoli to Serie A titles in 1987 and 1990 and the 1989 UEFA Cup title.
Maradona has asked his former Napoli teammate Salvatore Bagni to organize the birthday game.
