Argentine soccer legend Diego Maradona has been released from the Kennedy Hospital in Dubai after the successful surgery for removing a kidney stone.

Maradona left hospital in good health and may recuperate at home for a day, after which he will resume his normal work, said a spokesman at the Dubai's Al-Wasl Club.

Earlier today an official at the Kennedy Hospital had disclosed that the world soccer star and Dubai's Al-Wasl Club coach Diego Armando Maradona was admitted to the hospital on Sunday in a state of acute renal colic.

Specialist surgeon and Head of Urology department at Kennedy Hospital in Dubai Dr. Yasser Jassim performed the surgery using laparoscopic technique.
