Footballer creeps up to manager Diego Maradona by getting tattoo of icon on his leg
Dorados de Sinaloa goalkeeper Gaspar Servio bizarrely had the Argentinian's face inked on his leg
DORADOS star Gaspar Servio has bizarrely had a tattoo of World Cup winner Diego Maradona in homage to his boss.
The goalkeeper had the 58-year-old's face inked on his left leg, sparking mixed reactions on social media.
The pair have worked together since September, when the Argentinian legend took over at the Mexican second-tier side.
Servio, 26, was a regular starter as the club reached last season's play-off final, but they failed to be promoted after losing in extra-time in the second leg against Atletico San Luis.
And this campaign has started off in the worst possible fashion - losing their opening three games as they sit bottom of the table.
But Servio continues to have a smile on his face, as shown by the pictures uploaded to his Instagram where he posted snaps of him getting inked up.
Maradona can be seen with a grin on his face as he sports a Dorados cap, while the shot-stopper had the words "I believe in God" tattooed under the portrait.
Netizens were divided over the bizarre tat, with 'ezeceballos1' commenting: "Terrible."
But 'chelo_fi' wrote: "What a genius!"
And 'fede_luque1987' added: "You are crazy haha. I love you Gaspar!"
