Diego Maradona's personal doctor has allayed fears over the Argentinian legend's health.
Maradona, in the intensive care unit of a hospital with severe cardiac and pulmonary problems at the end of April, was released but readmitted on Wednesday suffering from what doctors described as a "feeding transgression".
After leaving hospital, the 43-year-old spent six days at a country house with friends, enjoying a barbecue and playing golf before returning to the Suizo Argentina Clinic six days later.
On Thursday, his second day back at the clinic, Maradona's personal physician Alfredo Cahe said: "He was eating too much and the exercise fatigued him. We'll have Diego for a long while. That's for sure. He's still young, and he's fine."
The clinic issued a statement on the 1986 World Cup star's health late last night and said there was a noted "improvement in his breathing and cardiac condition".
