Former Argentinean soccer wonder Diego Maradona is to head the United Arab Emirates club, Al Wasl with a hope to help take the only-domestically-famous club to athletic heights.



On Monday, Maradona was contracted to coach the team for two years, the Associated Press reported.

Al Wasl officials hoped the club would experience “new heights” with the aid of the 50-year-old's expertise.

“Maradona's football credentials speak for themselves,” said Carlo Nohra, the chief of the country's barely-one-year-old professional league.

“Whilst it's too early for us to judge what this appointment will mean for the league or the club, his profile and popularity have undoubtedly brought focus to the league which is as a positive thing,'' he said.

Al Wasl is currently fourth in a league that ends next month.

Maradona wore the blue and white jersey from 1977 to 1994 and captained Argentina in the 1986 World Cup tournament, when the national team came first.
