An ailing Pele was admitted to the hospital on 29th November with advanced complications from his colon cancer. The medical board immediately stepped up to take utmost care of the legend who is also suffering from kidney and cardiac problems. With a month spent at the hospital, there apparently wasn’t any improvement in Pele’s health.

The Brazilian legend was kept in intensive care for the past couple of months, and spent Christmas in hospital in Sao Paulo. Sao Paulo’s Albert Einstein hospital, where Pele was undergoing treatment, said he died at 3:27 p.m. “due to multiple organ failures resulting from the progression of colon cancer associated with his previous medical condition.”

Following the death, Pele’s family released a statement confirming his death. The statement said, “Inspiration, love marked the journey of King Pelé, who peacefully passed away today. Love, love and love, forever”.
