Past and present football stars have been wishing Pelé well on social media after local media reports in Brazil that his health had worsened.
The 82-year old former footballer, who is one of the greatest players of all time, was admitted to a hospital in Sao Paulo on Tuesday to re-evaluate his cancer treatment after Pelé had a tumor removed from his colon in September 2021. Pelé took to Instagram Thursday to thank fans for the positive messages and “good vibes” he had received.
In September of that year, he underwent surgery to remove a tumor from his right colon, which doctors found during routine examinations. Pelé is widely considered to be one of the greatest soccer players in history. He played in four World Cups, winning three – in 1958, 1962, 1970) – and scoring 12 goals in 14 games. He scored 1,281 goals in his professional career in 1,363 games.
