    Really sad news. The best footballer ever, in my opinion. He had no weakness to his game, at a time when brutal tackling was the norm.

    sad news, but it would be fitting if the World Cup was still ongoing, so it could honour him

    He got mercilessly clogged out of it by the dirty Bulgarians in 1966. Glad he came back with a bang in 1970. Probably the greatest player ever - WELL AHEAD of the Argie drug addicted cheat

    Pelé no longer responds to chemotherapy & is under palliative care to avoid pain & shortness of breath.

    There is no longer any treatment for the bowel cancer, which has metastasized to Pelé’s lungs & liver.

    Prayers for the King of football #pele #KingOfFootball #brazil
