Brazil legend Pele discharged from hospital again after treatment for tumours

Brazilian football icon Pele has been discharged from hospital in Sao Paulo after receiving cancer treatment for two days.

The 81-year-old was readmitted to hospital earlier this week after being initially discharged last month following chemotherapy for a colon tumour that was detected.

The former Brazil international was hospitalised at the start of December, residing in the Hospital Albert Einstein for most of December after the tumour was discovered during a routine check-up back in September.
