Marseille manager, Andres Villas-Boas, has urged the world football governing body, FIFA, to retire jersey number 10 in honour of the late Diego Maradona.
Maradona, considered one of the greatest footballers of all-time, died on Wednesday afternoon at the age of 60.
His health had been in decline in the last few months, before he passed away at his Buenos Aires home after suffering a cardiac arrest.
His former club, Napoli, have already confirmed plans to rename their stadium in his honour, but Villas-Boas wants the sport to come together to go one step further by retiring shirt number10 from the game.
“I would like FIFA to retire the number 10 shirt in all competitions, for all teams.
“It would be the best homage we could do for him. He is an incredible loss for the world of football,” he said.
