The Argentina legend assured in an interview with 'PiuEnne' that his bad relationship with the club made him leave them.

"The biggest problem was with Nunez (Barcelona's president). He came every day to the pitch and I didn't like it. Everyone has to be at his place," told Maradona the newspaper.

The Argentine legend revealed some details on their problems: "They took my passport away and this was when I decided to leave because it was a personal document that I needed."

This fight made him leave the club.
