Pelé, Brazil’s mighty king of soccer, has died.
Since 2021, he had been undergoing treatment for colon cancer discovered during a routine medical exam.
Pelé was one of the most commanding sports figures of the last century, winning a record three World Cups with Brazil and was the standard-bearer of “the beautiful game” with the national team and his club Santos.
He was 82.
