The state of health of the 82-year-old former soccer player has captured the attention in Brazil since last Wednesday, when the Albert Einstein Hospital in Sao Paulo, where he has been admitted since November 29, reported the worsening of colon cancer that he was diagnosed in 2021 and said Pelé is receiving care related to “kidney and heart dysfunctions”.

After learning about the state of health of the man considered by many to be the best footballer of all time, his daughters announced that they will spend Christmas in the hospital, where Edinho also arrived this Saturday.
The exporter was one of the children who had not yet been present at the hospital due to his professional commitments in Londrina, a city in the neighboring state of Paraná.
