Skills, Brilliancy, Magic: The inspiring life of football legend Pele
Pele, who is called the magician of football, is no longer among us. He said goodbye to the world at the age of 82.
According to media reports, the early life of Pele, who brought Brazil to the top in the world of football, was a struggle. Born in a poor family, Pele was fond of football since childhood.
He did not have money to buy football and kit, so he used to play on the streets of São Paulo by making a ball of newspaper waste.
Pele also worked as a waiter in tea shops. Pele, who scored about 650 goals in league matches and 1281 goals in senior matches, became the king of the football world on the basis of his passion.
Pele was born on October 23, 1940 in Minas Gerais, Brazil. His full name was Edson Arantes do Nascimento.
However, as Pele kept making new records in the football field, he got many nicknames like 'Black Pearl', 'King of Football', 'King Pele'. Most of the money in his wealth was made after his football career.
According to media reports, Pele, also known as 'King of Football', has left behind a property of about $ 100 million.
