French Court Allows Auction of Maradona's 1986 World Cup Golden Ball Trophy

Maradona's heirs claim the trophy was stolen, but the court rules in favor of the current owner, allowing the auction to proceed.

The Golden Ball trophy, awarded to Diego Maradona in 1986, will be auctioned next Thursday in Paris.
Maradona's heirs unsuccessfully tried to block the auction, alleging the trophy was stolen.
The current owner, Mr. Benchaieb, claims he bought the trophy in good faith in 2016.
The court's decision does not affect the ongoing investigation into the alleged theft.
The trophy is expected to fetch millions due to its historical significance.
