Giannina Maradona received custody of the child and moved back to Argentina, while Sergio Aguero continued to ply his trade in England for Manchester City. Diego Maradona was furious with the Argentina international for breaking his daughter's heart and had sensationally called him a "wimp" on social media after he was pictured with Argentinian singer Karina Tejeda.

Aguero meanwhile had admitted to Argentine newspaper Ole that it was gut-wrenching for him to be separated from his son. In the aftermath of the divorce, the Man City striker said that he had been adapting to a new phase in his life and it was difficult to part ways with Ben.
