WORLD CUP 2010: Diva Diego Maradona not happy with bog-standard toilets! Argentina boss demands luxury at training base in South Africa

Diego Maradona has demanded two state-of-the-art bidet toilets be installed for him at Argentina's World Cup base camp in South Africa.

Builders were rushed in to carry out a £1,400 overhaul of the football legend's private suite after his aides complained that the existing bathroom facilities would not meet his 'high standards.'

His bedroom now includes two bathrooms, each featuring a bidet  toilets, which according to a South African newspaper retail for £311 each.

They feature a heated seat, a warm air blow-dryer and front and rear bidet wands.

The toilet is available on www.sandman.com, which describes it as 'the best toilet seat in the world.'

Colin Stier, the manager at the High Performance Centre in Pretoria where the team will stay, said Maradona's aides had made the demand.

'(Bidets) are quite common in Argentina but hard to get hold of here,' he said.

'In the end we managed to track down a seat which has bidet nozzles, but to make it fit we ended up having to replace the whole bathroom too.'

'Of course we were happy to do so. If it makes Diego more comfortable during his stay then it's worth the effort.'

Maradona and Argentina's squad will arrive in South Africa later this week.

Maradona's private suite at the centre, which is operate by the University of Pretoria, was created by knocking two existing bedrooms together.

The request was one of many made by the Argentinian team, which only narrowly qualified for the World Cup after a string of poor results under Maradona's leadership.

DIEGO'S DEMANDS

Two bidet toilets

All rooms must be painted white

Six Playstations for the footballers

Ten hot dishes to be served every day

Every dinner must include three desserts

Ice cream must be available at all times

Other requests including a demand for rooms to be painted white, and for six Playstations to be installed for players to use during their free time.

The Argentinian FA also demanded 10 hot dishes be served every day alongside no less than 14 different salads at every meal.

Every dinner must include at least three pasta sauces and no fewer than three desserts.

The team also demanded South African braai at least once every three days and requested that ice cream be made available at all times throughout their stay.

The catering details were revealed by South Africa's Sunday Times newspaper during an interview with HPC kitchen manager Linda Tyrrell.

Argentina's rivals have also made a string of demands ahead of their arrival in South Africa.

The Brazilian team demanded their pool be heated to exactly 32 C by the time the players arrive at the Fairway Hotel in Johannesburg.

Hotel marketing assistant Ariska van der Westhuizen also said the squad would bring along two of their own Portuguese chefs, but 'would not be taking over the kitchen'.

They also ordered hot coffee and cookies - but said that there was to be no chocolate.

The Mexican players, who will stay at the Thaba Ya Batswana lodge near Johannesburg, requested their own priest who will conduct services during the tournament in a church on the premises.

The Italian team has flown in specialist gym equipment ahead of their arrival and will bring their own pasta with them from Rome.

Managers for the New Zealand team have enquired about arranging golf lessons for some of their players during the tournament.

These demands contrast starkly with the more budget requests from the Slovakian players - who simply asked for a pair of table tennis tables and an electronic dartboard. - DailyMail.co.uk
