Maradona's toilets will include new wash basins, toilet bowls, cisterns, taps and E-Bidet luxury toilet seats, according to South African paper The Sunday Times.
The E-Bidet features a heated seat, a warm air blow-dryer and front and rear bidet wands. It sells for 450 dollars (358 euros) at online retailer sandman.com, which bills it as "the world's best toilet seat".
The head of the University of Pretoria's High Performance Centre, Argentina's base camp for the June 11 to July 11 tournament, said staff had received a special request from the Argentine national association to remodel the football legend's bathrooms.
"They felt that the basins and toilet bowls were not up to Maradona's standards," Colin Stier said.
Group B favourites Argentina play their first match against Nigeria on June 12 in Johannesburg.
