The body of Argentinian football legend, Diego Maradona, has arrived at the presidential palace in Buenos Aires where it will be put on display for fans.

As a crowd of weeping fans gathered outside, Maradona’s coffin was lifted out of an ambulance and brought into the palace.

Three days of national mourning have begun in Argentina.

Maradona died of a heart attack on Wednesday at the age of 60, two weeks after surgery for a brain blood clot.
