Social media posts indicate that family members visited the legendary Pele on Saturday at the Sao Paulo hospital, where he is being treated for a worsening case of cancer as well as kidney and heart issues.
On Christmas Eve, Edinho, Pele’s son and the newly appointed coach of the northern Parana-based Serie B team Londrina, arrived at the medical center with his sisters Flavia and Kely Nascimento. He captioned a picture of himself holding the football player’s hand that he shared on Instagram: Father… my solidarity is yours.”
I’d like to be here, but I’m committed to my mission here. I’m not a specialist, I couldn’t actually help a lot,” he said in a meeting distributed on Friday by the everyday Estadao.
Kely posted a picture of herself embracing her 82-year-old father in the hospital on the same day with the caption “one more night together” on it.
The three-time World Cup champion’s Albert Einstein Hospital announced on Wednesday that his colon cancer was showing “progression” and that he required “more extensive care to treat kidney and heart failure.”
Prior to that day, his girls had reported he wouldn’t be home to visit the family.
According to AFP, the environment outside the hospital on Saturday was tranquil.
Since being admitted to the hospital, Pele, who is widely regarded as the greatest football player of all time, has received a number of messages of support, one of which was from the French star Kylian Mbappe, who urged his fans to “pray for the King.”
On November 29, Pele was admitted to a hospital in Sao Paulo for what his medical team referred to as a re-evaluation of the chemotherapy he had been receiving since September 2021, when he had surgery to remove a colon tumor.
