Luxury toilets for Diego Maradona during World Cup

The Argentine Football Association has made a special request to organizers to provide coach Diego Maradona with luxury toilets at next month's World Cup, according to reports.
 
Maradona's toilets will include new washbasins, toilet bowls, cisterns, taps and E-Bidet luxury toilet seats, according to South African paper The Sunday Times.

The E-Bidet features a heated seat, a warm air blow dryer and front and rear bidet wands.

It sells for 450 dollars (358 euros) at online retailer sandman.com, which bills it as "the world's best toilet seat", The Telegraph reports.
 
University of Pretoria's High Performance Centre will be Argentina's base camp for the June 11 to July 11 tournament.

The head of the University of Pretoria's High Performance Centre said staff had received a special request from the Argentine national association to remodel the football legend's bathrooms.

"They felt that the basins and toilet bowls were not up to Maradona's standards," Colin Stier said.

Group B favourites Argentina play their first match against Nigeria on June 12 in Johannesburg.
