Teenager 'pregnant with Maradona's child'

A Cuban teenager is expecting a baby by Maradona, it was reported last night.

Adonay Fruto, 19, has told friends she is carrying the 43-year-old Argentine soccer legend's child.

Maradona is said to know nothing of his impending fatherhood. He is currently unconscious in a clinic in his home country after falling ill at a football match last Sunday.

Doctors have diagnosed a lung infection and heart problems thought to be linked to his drug addiction.

Maradona, who has been living in Cuba as a guest of Fidel Castro, is said to have been dating Miss Fruto since last year. The child would be his fifth.
