Brazil legend Pele, arguably the most famous and greatest footballer in the history of the game, has died at the age of 82.
His death was announced on Thursday having suffered from a series of health issues in recent years, most recently after being diagnosed with cancer in September 2021.
Pele - who played as a forward and later an attacking midfielder - spent much of his club career with Santos, for whom he scored 643 goals in 659 official games between 1956 and 1974. He then finished his career with three years at New York Cosmos in the United States, where he scored 66 goals in 107 games.
