Diego Maradona has returned to Naples to plead his innocence over €40m (£32m) in taxes the authorities claim he owes from his time playing for Napoli between 1984-1991.

Hundreds of supporters greeted him at Naples airport. "I didn't kill anyone," Maradona said. "I'm here to seek justice. I am not a tax fraudster."
