The seriously ill world star Pele spoke up on Twitter on Wednesday.
Former Brazilian soccer star Pele called on his fans via Twitter on Wednesday to stop and celebrate with him. “Because with every day that goes by, I get closer to my goal,” wrote the three-time world champion, who will be 81 on Monday (23 October).
Pele, who is considered one of the greatest players of all time, was operated on for a tumor in September and is now undergoing chemotherapy.
Sugiro que comece a pegar fôlego para comemorar comigo, porque a cada dia que passa eu estou mais perto do gol.
