39 years since Granada brought together the three Maradona brothers

Granada marked 39 years since the unique 1987 friendly against Malmö where Diego, Hugo and Lalo Maradona all played together in red and white.

Granada commemorated one of the most singular episodes in its history with a video in which Lalo Maradona recalled the friendly against Malmö on 15 November 1987 — the only occasion when all three Maradona brothers wore the Granada shirt together.

Diego Armando Maradona was then the world's best player and reigning World Cup champion with Argentina, starring for Napoli. His brothers Hugo and Lalo also played professionally in Italy. Granada had just been promoted to Segunda División and signed Lalo, the youngest brother, in a transfer worth around 166,000 euros — a significant sum for the club at the time.

Diego helped organize the prestigious friendly at Los Cármenes to generate revenue through ticket sales.

The match lived up to expectations. Palmer gave Malmö the lead in the 20th minute, but Lalo equalized six minutes later. Johansson restored Malmö's advantage in the second half before Diego levelled again. Manolo sealed a 3-2 victory in the 86th minute. The historic photograph of all three brothers together under the Granada crest remains one of the most celebrated images in the club's memory.
