by

Pele, 81, returned to the hospital this Sunday (13) to continue his treatment against a colon tumor. He himself disclosed his hospitalization, saying that it was scheduled and does not represent a complication of his health status.

“Friends, as I’ve been doing monthly, I’m going to the hospital to continue my treatment. I hope there’s popcorn to watch the Super Bowl soon. I’ll be watching even though my friend Tom Brady isn’t playing. Thanks for all the messages of love “, published the former player, on Instagram, a message that accompanied a photo with an open smile.

Tom Brady is the football legend who announced his retirement earlier this month, aged 44, following the elimination of his Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In his final season, he failed to reach the NFL (American Football League) final, called the Super Bowl, played between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals.

Pele has been repeatedly admitted to Hospital Albert Einstein, in São Paulo, for chemotherapy sessions. According to what his daughter Kely Nascimento informed at the end of last month, the visits are periodic and planned.

“My dad goes to the hospital every month. Sometimes he goes twice, stays overnight. But nothing has changed,” Kely said.
