Spanish newspaper Marca said that an investigation has found that the late football legend Diego Maradona's doctor, Leopoldo Luque, forged the former footballer's signature in key medical documents.
Maradona died after suffering a cardiac arrest on the 25th of November 2020.
After the World Cup winner's death, an investigation was launched in order to determine any kinds of negligence in his medical treatment that could have led to a wrongful death.
An Argentine court found that Luque had forged Maradona's signature to gain access to the patient's medical records, according to Marca.
"The three sheets were found together; it was something very obvious and very clumsy," sources of the investigation were quoted.
"The expert advice can only confirm the suspicion we already had concerning a falsification."
Luque came out and defended himself following the Argentinian legend's death in late 2020, saying that the former footballer was not a willing patient.
"Everybody used to look to me because they knew I was the only person that could get anything out of him," he said.
"No one dared to go into his room and I was a facilitator. I got ignored in meetings, they only wanted me for that."
