A few years ago, whilst visiting India I somehow managed to get an autographed jersey of his. It has pride of placement in my office.
Thank you, sir for teaching us about joga bonito and being such a hero and idol to billions. Rest in Peace to the greatest! @pele".

Pele was detected with a colon tumour and it was removed in September, 2021. But deadly Covid-19 further deteriorated his heath with respirator infection. He lead his country Brazil in 1958, 1962 and 1970 with World Cups and will remain one of the leading scorers with 77 goals.
RIP Pele…
