Maradona may quit Al Wasl unless provided with bigger budget

Diego Maradona has told the owners of UAE’s Al Wasl FC that he might not return next season if it does not get to sign on better players.

“I have a list of players I want to sign on but this was not possible due to a restricted budget. We have to make the most of what we have. Next season I will not accept a small budget. We need a big budget to give us a boost and added value to make us competitive. Without this I may be forced to submit my resignation to the chairman," Maradona said.

The Argentinean football legend is on a two-year contract with Al Wasl and has questioned the professionalism of some players in the league in past, News Globe reported.
