The picture of the 1986 World Cup winner was said to have appeared in the night sky as the shape of the 60-year-old was formed completely with his iconic number 10 jersey.
And it was filmed by an Argentine woman named Natali Rios who said she thought the moon and clouds looked beautiful and she captured the image of the Napoli forward.
The 26-year-old added that she recorded the footage after watching footage of Diego Maradona, 60, who passed earlier this month.
According to Daily Star, the images showed what looked like a silhouette of Maradona created by the contrast of the night sky and the clouds.
Some characteristics of Maradona were spotted in the silhouette with his hair and his iconic goal celebration captured in it. His famous number 10 was also seen momentarily just under the moon before the clouds move.
Natali said she did not initially see the silhouette and was told by a friend after she posted the video on social media. However, she later said:
“Maybe we miss him so much that we see anything now? I don't know, but it is still magic.”
