Argentinian football legend Diego Maradona is "very well" following brain surgery on a blood clot, his personal doctor Leopoldo Luque said on Sunday.
"He is getting better every day, the recovery is incredible," said the neurosurgeon in brief statements to the press after leaving the Olivos Clinic, located in the northern outskirts of Buenos Aires.
Maradona, 60, underwent surgery by Luque on Nov 3.
Luque ruled out discharging Maradona on Monday, saying "the idea is that he does not leave tomorrow," although "he is very lucid and very well."
Maradona was hospitalized on November 2 in La Plata, a city 50 kilometers from Buenos Aires, due to symptoms of anemia and depression.
At that health center, doctors detected a blood clot the next day, caused by a blow to the head, and transferred him to the Olivos Clinic.
