Scottish football will pay its respects to Pele, widely regarded as the game’s greatest-ever player, prior to matches at the weekend and on Monday.
The SPFL has written to all clubs suggesting a minute’s applause or other appropriate gesture be made prior to matches over the next few days.
Neil Doncaster, chief executive of the SPFL, said: “Scottish football fans appreciate skill, class and achievement, and no player in the game better typified those qualities than Pele.
