In the midst of the serious state of health of Pelé, the legend, they filter images and videos of the preparations for his funeral

The world of football is waiting for what happens with Edson Arantes do Nascimento, better known as Pelé, the player who, for many, is the most important in the history of this sport.

The 82-year-old man continues to fight for his life at the Albert Einstein Israeli Hospital, where he has been since November 29, as it was reported that he was no longer responding to chemotherapy for colon cancer that metastasized in several organs and presented “swelling” throughout his body. In addition, he suffered from “kidney and heart dysfunctions,” according to reports from his country of origin.

The triple world champion had to stay for the Christmas festivities confined in the hospital with his two older daughters, while the rest of the family came to the place to accompany their loved one.

A video of Pelé on a video call was leaked and shook social networks with the image of a crack obviously worn. even some fakenews indicated that he had died on December 23

“We are still here, in the fight and in the faith. One more night together.” wrote Kelly Nascimento, one of Pelé’s daughters, on Friday, December 23.

However, and although the ‘King’ continued to fight for his life, sensitive images of what would be his funeral leaked.

The photo, viral on social networks, reveals the alleged preparations that are carried out on the grass of Vila Belmiro or Urbano Caldeira Stadium, which belongs to the Santos football club where he was from the lower categories between 1956-1974.

He made his debut on September 7, 1956 against Corinthians, with a goal in a friendly. However, he must have improved his physical ability, as he was very thin. He not only became the strong player, but impossible to stop for his rivals. He won 14 regional titles, six national titles, two Copa Libertadores and two intercontinental with Santos. In addition, he was the scorer of the São Paulo championship on different occasions.

For this reason, on the sports scene where ‘the king’ was made, he is already preparing what would be his last goodbye in the midst of a tense calm. The images reveal tents in the middle of the pitch, ready to receive the coffin and the relatives of the former soccer player, who would first do a private ceremony.

Also, in networks, there is an audiovisual of the golden coffin with an image of Pelé in high relief material.

They even keep some ceramic figures for when death occurs.

Another of Pelé’s sons who spoke in recent hours about his father’s condition was Edson Cholbi do Nascimento, better known as Edinho, who was also a soccer player and goalkeeper. “I take this opportunity to address everyone. First, to thank you very much for all the love, all the messages, all the messages, all the prayers that, on behalf of all my family, we have been receiving, ”he said at a press conference with the team he leads.

Edinho is doing the preseason for Londrina, the team with which he currently competes in the Paranaense Championship, organized in the state of Paraná. In view of his father’s failing health, this Saturday it was learned that he will travel to São Paulo on an emergency basis to accompany him.
