Kolkata, Dec 11 (IBNS): Argentina's football superstar Diego Maradona arrived in Kolkata late on Sunday, for a three day visit to the city, according to media reports on Monday.

This is his second visit to the city known for its football frenzy.

The FIFA Player of the 20th Century (an award he won jointly with Brazilian football legend Pele) has a series of programmes lined up in Kolkata.

However, according to media reports, he has expressed a wish to visit Mother House in Kolkata, even though it is not a part of his scheduled tour.

It might be possible if the security officials give the go ahead, media reported.
