The former Barcelona and Napoli man, who won the World Cup with his nation in 1986, is still idolised in his homeland.

Maradona was the father in law of City player Sergio Aguero as well.

Guardiola told BT Sport: "First (I think about) Sergio. His son, Diego was his grandfather.

"There was a banner in Argentina which says, "It doesn't matter what you have done in your life, it matters what you have done in our lives." Imagine what Maradona would have done in our generation (of football).

"There are few incredible players in our history, he's one of them. He was someone who made this sport better.

"On behalf on Manchester City a big hug for all his family."
