This is follow-up treatment, after which Pelén is expected to leave the hospital in the next few days.
Brazilian football legend Pelé has been admitted to the hospital, doctors treating him said on Wednesday. The pelvis was removed from the colon in early September, and this recent hospitalization period is follow-up.
“The patient is in stable well-being and is expected to be discharged from the hospital in the next few days,” representatives of Albert Einstein of Sao Paulo, who is treating Pelé, said.
Pelé was hospitalized on August 31 when a routine checkup revealed a suspected tumor. Pelé was in the hospital for a month and has since received chemotherapy. Pelé has suffered from health problems in recent years and has spent several periods in hospital.
Pelé, officially called Edson Arantes do Nascimento, is the only player in the history of football to win three world championships (1958, 1962, 1970). He has on several occasions been named a football player of all time and also one of the greatest athletes of all time.
