Argentine soccer great Diego Maradona has been released from hospital after being admitted earlier on Friday with internal bleeding in the stomach, his daughter Dalma said.
"For those who were really worried about my dad I can tell you that he is well," Dalma wrote on Twitter.
The 58-year-old was having a routine medical in his homeland of Argentina before returning to Mexico, where he is coach of second division side Dorados de Sinaloa, when doctors discovered the problem.
However, a source close to the family says the problem was not serious and that the former midfielder, who famously led his country to the 1986 World Cup title, was not in any danger.
Another source said Maradona may have to undergo more tests.
Friday's scare was the latest for Maradona, who has suffered frequent periods in hospital over the years, often due to his extravagant lifestyle.
He last fell ill at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, where he was filmed passing out in an executive box.
Maradona was taken into hospital in 2004 with severe heart and respiratory problems linked to cocaine use.
He later underwent drug rehabilitation in Cuba and Argentina before a stomach-stapling operation in 2005 helped him lose weight.
In 2007 he checked himself into a clinic in Buenos Aires to help him overcome alcohol abuse problems.
In recent months he has walked with the aid of crutches due to problems with his knees.
The unexpected news of his admittance to hospital on Friday came just hours after Maradona's lawyer confirmed he would coach in Mexico for a second consecutive season.
Maradona took over at struggling Dorados de Sinaloa in September and got them into the playoffs.
"Diego Maradona has arranged to continue with the Dorados de Sinaloa and will stay as coach of the team for the whole season," his agent Matias Morla wrote on Twitter.
