Pele: Pele’s family gathered on Christmas Eve at Sao Paulo’s Albert Einstein Hospital, where the 82-year-old icon has been since November to reevaluate his treatment and treat a respiratory infection. Pele’s cancer had progressed, and the three-time World Cup winner was in “elevated care” due to “kidney and cardiac dysfunctions,” doctors said this week.

Pele’s son, Edson Cholbi Nascimento, also known as Edinho, arrived on Saturday, a day after he denied visiting his father in the hospital.”He (Edson) is here,” Kely Nascimento, one of Pele’s daughters, wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo of herself sitting next to Edinho and two of his children at the hospital. “I’m not leaving; no one will take me away.”

Edinho also shared a photo of himself holding his father’s hand. “Dad… my strength is yours,” he said. Pele had a colon tumor removed in September last year, but neither his family nor his doctors have said whether it had spread to other organs. Pele led Brazil to World Cup glory in 1958, 1962, and 1970. During the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Neymar recently tied Pele’s all-time record as Brazil’s leading scorer (77 goals).
