The health of Brazilian soccer legend Edson Arantes do Nascimento (Pelé) worsened recently

Brasilia, September 17 (RHC/PL)--The health of Brazilian soccer legend Edson Arantes do Nascimento (Pelé) worsened recently and he had to return to the intensive care unit of a hospital in Sao Paulo, Record TV reported today.
 
According to the report, O Rei now has a larynx problem, which requires special and specific follow-up.  On September 11, Pelé, who is 80-years-old, underwent surgery to remove a tumor in his right colon.

He was medically discharged last Tuesday and jokingly wrote on social networks that he was "very willing to play 90 minutes, plus extra time.  Soon we will be together," he remarked.

In 2014, the former sports star, revered as the best soccer player in history, was hospitalized in intensive care after another urinary infection that forced him to undergo dialysis in his left kidney, the only one he has.

He also underwent hip and spine surgeries, and since 2012 he has been moving around with some difficulty, even appearing in public in a wheelchair.
