Those sort of players only come once in a lifetime or generation. I'm very sure Napoli, Argentina and Boca Juniors will retire the number 10 jersey in his memory..

sounds funny and kinda overblown...fifa cnt retire a shirt number bcox of diego bcoz other football greats av died and it wasnt done..
Napoli n agentina are in great position to do such bt i dnt even think dt any would retire dt his number...
how do fifa explain to england dt are still mad with diego bcox of dt hand of god goal against them? or how do fifa explain to Nigeria not to use dt number 10 jersey won by d man dt gave us a "fck you" sing on live t.v??....
even if pele finally joined him, I dnt think such would be done globally..
