Diego Maradona’s autopsy revealed that the soccer legend had no alcohol or narcotic drugs in his body when he died last month.
The 60-year-old Argentine soccer star had been battling health problems when he died on November 25.
Despite a history of drug use, the preliminary autopsy determined that Maradona died in his sleep of acute pulmonary edema, a build-up of fluid in the lungs, due to congestive heart failure, according to reports.
The toxicology report also did not detect alcohol or illegal substances, but it did detect the presence of psychotropic drugs used to treat anxiety and depression.
The report also revealed that Maradona’s heart weighed almost twice that of a normal heart, while his lungs, kidneys and liver were damaged.
His daughter Gianinna Maradona took to social media saying that her father was not himself in the weeks leading up to his death.
“All the sons of p … waiting for my dad’s autopsy to reveal drugs, marijuana and alcohol. I’m not a doctor but I saw him very swollen. A robotic voice. It wasn’t his voice …”, he wrote on Twitter.
The great soccer player struggled with addiction to cocaine and alcohol and had been plagued with health problems in recent years.
