He insists senior figures at the Napoli club at the time were responsible for the situation."Why do I have to pay and not them?" he said at a news conference flanked by lawyers and bodyguards.
"I'm a victim because I earned a lot but I didn't know anything about contractual questions.
"I didn't kill anyone. I'm here to seek justice."
Note
Diego Maradona played for Serie A club Napoli between 1984 and 1991, helping them to win two league titles in that time
During a visit in 2009, Italian police seized a diamond earring from him that was later auctioned for 25,000 euros - five times its asking price - to help pay off his tax bill.
During another visit to Naples in 2006, police seized two Rolex watches.
