Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, formerly known as Stadio San Paolo, is a large multi-purpose stadium in Naples, Italy. Completed in 1959, it is the fourth-largest football stadium in Italy after Milan's San Siro, Rome's Stadio Olimpico and Bari's San Nicola. Originally built with a combination of standing and seating sections, the stadium is currently an all-seater, with a capacity of 54,726. It is the home of SSC Napoli, the reigning Serie A champions.
Following the death of Diego Maradona in 2020, city mayor Luigi de Magistris and Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis proposed renaming the stadium to "Stadio Diego Armando Maradona." The proposal was passed on 4 December 2020, and was announced by the mayor on social media and made official that same day.
