Argentina will face Scotland on Wednesday, Maradona’s first game in charge.
“This is a special game for us because it’s Diego’s debut as a coach,” Heinze told setantasports.com.
“The entire squad feels happy with this new era of Argentinian football that is about to start.
“To my mind, Maradona’s arrival in charge of the team is a positive thing. He made history in the country and has the chance of doing the same from the bench.
“My team-mates feel great and strong, and performing well in Glasgow on Wednesday would be superb.”
