The last period seemed to be going in the right direction for Pele. His doctors said a week and a half ago: “His condition is improving, especially with a respiratory infection.” But now things are going wrong again.
Not long after, his daughters Kelly Nascimento and Flavia Arantes also confirmed the news: “Christmas has been postponed,” they wrote on Instagram. “We decided with the doctors, for various reasons, that it would be best for us to stay here, with all the support our new family from the Albert Einstein Hospital gives us.” Then Kelly’s daughter shared a cute photo with the Brazilian soccer legend. “We keep fighting and we still think he’s going to be okay,” she wrote. Pele’s son, Edinho, also posted a photo on Instagram holding his father’s hand.
Pele, 82, suffers from colon cancer and was hospitalized at the end of November due to bronchitis. According to his family, a previous infection with the coronavirus was the cause. According to the Brazilian media, the three-time world champion (1958, 1962, 1970) had metastases in his body.
The fate of Pele, the only footballer to have three world titles on his list of honors, touches many soccer hearts, especially in Brazil. During the Qatar World Cup, Brazilian players supported the football god with a banner after their eighth World Cup victory against South Korea. One round later, in the quarter-finals against Croatia, the Seleção were knocked out on penalties.
